Episode 31: On the Appalachian Trail with Molly LaRue and Geoff Hood Part 1

Today we're heading back to the Appalachian Trail, following the footsteps of Molly LaRue and Geoff Hood. They were lovers of the outdoors, and love sharing this passion to working with children!

They were so excited, good spirited and just loving life as they made their way along the nearly 2,000 mile trail in 1990, and were a young couple in love. Tragically, their time was cut short in the most awful of circumstances... This is the first of 3 parts.
