Walking with Winnie

From the Tent, From the Field


Last night Winnie stayed at Norwegian Wood Farm, courtesy of Wally and Cori Nichols. Today we packed up and headed down Berme Road. A kind man named Erik, looking for two red hogs that had escaped from his farm, stopped his car and asked about us. He then introduced Winnie and me to John and Christie Adams, who let us camp in their field tonight. We enjoyed a great dinner from John's organic garden and now I am writing this blog from my tent. Winnie is outside munching grass, sideline hobbled. We are on battery so this blog will be short.

Hi Ann,
Ruth and Ron here ...I am amazed and inspired by your walk. Your spirit has refused to descend into self pity and you have touched us deeply. My friend and i just finished a horsemanship clinic with our two horses and had a blast...my first time in the round pen-loving it! We are keeping track of your route and will try to drive out to see you on your journey when you reach central PA. Give Winnie a hug and kiss, and God bless. R&R=)Lancaster, PA

Thanks for your words of encouragement. Winnie sends a big slobbery horse kiss back to you and here's a hug from Ann!

You and Winnie are an inspiration. Years ago, I met the blind hiker on the Appalachian Trail with his wonderful dog. People doubted they could complete their 2000+ miles but they did! I believe you two will meet your goal too.
