Summary
Ken Good is today's guest. Ken took the name PTL (or Praise the Lord) on the Appalachian Trail. If you followed Ken's YouTube channel–Bestill on the Trail–you'll know exactly why!!
Ken is such a positive person, carrying and expressing his faith all the way to Katahdin, meeting people along the way who were happy to pray with him.
You can check out Bestill on the Trail at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCU6UNNbl5GM2KoTeOU-nhAQ.
Our Mighty Blue Class of 2022 members this week are Kera, Ryan, and Brittaney. All three are looking forward to their impending trip, with a little apprehension thrown in for good measure!

| 0:49.1 | Hi guys, thanks for joining me while I'm actually on a break from the show. |
| 0:53.0 | This is Mighty Blue on the Appalachian Trail, the ultimate midlife crisis, and I am Mighty Blue or Steve Adams. This episode is due to come out on March the 31st, and according to my spreadsheet today, Dana and I are due to be visiting Hiva Castle, the old home of Van Berlin, and pretty much next door, we're also going to be going |
| 1:11.1 | to Church of the Old Home at Chartwell. We're still on this tour of the UK, and in just two days |
| 1:16.5 | time, Dana will be heading home and I'll be heading out alone to hike the West Highland |

| 2:01.7 | If you watch his YouTube channel, you'll soon know why. Ken will be on shortly. |
| 2:06.5 | Also today we catch out with another group from our Mighty Blue Class of 2022. This time, |
