I'm on the road! Mile post 50

These are just quick bulletins... I will have a more detail recounting soon, but I just wanted to post something already!
Please post comments and lets start a discussion here!

I was ready to stop for the day at 13 miles... but kept pushing through till I got another 18 for the day! Thanks to Mart at mile post 48 for directing me to the Mary River Park where I am now at mile 50!

4-15-07 - 10:30pm: Special Thanks to Mike, Lori, Denise, and Debra at the Fir Ridge Campground. Great food, Great Jokes! "There are too many frowns around... all I can do is try to make people smile once in a while" - Mike

Congratulations for getting your Walk For Progress underway. Love the pictures and videos. Looking forward to some interviews with the people you are meeting along the way. Best Wishes and be well.

Hey Alborz!
The family says Hi and they liked the pictures of the horses. I told them that I thought that you would see many, many horses on your trip.

You be careful with drinking that stream water--if you aren't purifying that stuff you can get giardia.

Way to go!

Hi Alborz!
Robin is such a worry-wart. He IS pretty smart about most things, though... sigh.
The girls do love your pics. Thanks. Sarah says "Hi!" I'm sending her to bed now to be well rested for the @#$! Wasl testing.
Good wishes and thoughts your way!
Kirsten

Did you get a chance to check out Cafe Stefanie or The ARR Place while you were in Newport? Looks like you were only there the night of the 13th and the next morning. You'll have to hit them on the flip side!
