About Me
My name is Jacob Rohlman and I entered the blogging world to help record my exploits from the Appalachian Trail. Also, to express a little more freedom with journaling and daily thoughts that might cross my mind. I am an alumni from Muskegon Community College where I graduated with my associates and I also received my diploma from Mona Shores High School. My passion has almost always been soccer, however, the older that I become the more important I realize it is to have multiple drives in life. I’ve had 5 jobs starting from the time I turned 17 and none of them landed me in a position I could see myself staying in for the long haul. I hope you enjoy my site and the posts that come with it. Welcome to “eating elephants”!
