When I saw a comment on my blog from Gina Thorsen, daughter of the owner of
Stormy Kromer, I was elated. The iconic
Stormy Kromer cap was one of my most prized possessions. A gift from my brother Rob. My 'go-to' cap. A symbol of all things Michigan and outdoorsy and tough. You can imagine my heart break when I lost it while hiking the Appalachian Trail. Touring the factory where they makes these caps and getting a replacement one - in the same dark green color - made it all better.

| They let me sign the wall. |

| Know who else gets to sign the wall? Governors. |

I'll post more stories about the hike and arriving in Ironwood soon but I was just so thrilled to visit Stormy Kromer that I had to post this. Feel free to leave a comment here or on
the blog on the Stormy Kromer website.
