Woke up, drank some coffee, Ellen and John went to work. Weighed ourselves, Chad lost 6 lbs, I lost 2. We helped ourselves to some hash browns, eggs, sausage, cherries and yogurt for breakfast, packed up our stuff and hit the road. We are on our way to Syracuse to Chad's parents' house to sort/clean our gear. Then I'm back to Buffalo tonight! excited to sleep in my own bed! Will post pics from camera soon (fb and some online album). Also, it is amazing/depressing that it takes 10 hours to hike 20 miles, and less than 20 minutes to drive 20 miles...
Dear Valerie, I have been following your blog every day. The amazing courage to take on such a challenge was admirable. This wondrous adventure that you took on will forever change and shape your life. Thank you for allowing me the privilege of "coming along" with you!

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger ! You were already one tough (Girl Scout) cookie. Anxious to see you again and hear your stories.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your accomplishment...now are you ready for some broccoli cheddar pizza ?
Love, Mom
Val, Your blog was a wonderful way for all of us to share in your trip. Thanks for the posts and congrats on this accomplishment. I'm sure you have a new appreciation for a real bed, no bugs, water from the tap and shall we not forget those amazing flush toilets. Best of luck on the employment trail. Alison Clarke
