The Route

Our walk started in Pelham, Massachusetts, and ended after Winnie went lame in Pennsylvania. We departed on June 1, 2009, and together we walked over 300 miles before we had to abandon our journey. A former host from Kerhonkson, New York, Joyce Anderson, asked her friends and family to help us get the rest of the way to California. She raised $1000 for us so we could trailer Winnie the remaining distance to California. Many others helped us along the way, and we will never forget the hospitality shown us in every state we visited.

From Cincinnati, OH to Dodge City, KS we had planned to walk on the American Discovery Trail, a coast-to-coast trail.

A rough estimate of our planned route is shown below. My current location is indicated by the sun.
