I did. Springer Mountain, Georgia to Mount Katahdin, Maine. One of the greatest experiences of my life.

Congrats.

Probably the longest I've ever walked on the AT is the pedestrian bridge (attached to a RR bridge) that crosses the Potomac River at Harpers Ferry. :)

I've also seen highway crossings of the AT at Newfound Gap in the Great Smokies on Route 441; I-70 in MD where that road goes under the AT (there's a pedestrian bridge for the AT there too), and one or two places in PA (not counting the few times I went through the Lehigh Tunnel on the PA Turnpike NE Extension, which goes under the AT).

Yes, I've read Bryson's book (my library's copy) and it is a bit of a ripoff.

Blue Mountain was a horrid stretch the year I hiked. It was in the 100s and all of the springs were dry. We sipped our way through our canteens and really struggled for a couple of days. That was the most miserable part of the trip. (Next was Vermont, which isn’t nicknamed Vermud for nothing...).

I think she complied with what you said except she had a gun in a non threatening position. I worked in Mississippi before Obama and as someone else here on this thread pointed out there has been a rise in crime with a racial component. She is 70 and fat not suited to wearing a holster and KOA camp grounds would have rules posted. Since the video is one sided I can’t see what the couple were doing and the reporting is slanted too. The woman of the couple was quick to add the racial component which I didn’t pick up on in the couple’s video.
