Today I reach my destination

Dear Children,

Today I'm going to write just a short message to you because I need to walk my last nine miles to get to the end of Route 11. Here I am at the 25 mile mark.

I wanted to show you this photograph of a wind farm in Northern New York State - there were dozens of windmills. Do you remember the video of little windmills down in Alabama? I took a video of these, up close, and I will post it early next week.

And this photo reminds me of a picture of this farm machine I took way back, also in Alabama. This time it has a windmill behind it. I think it's cool!

Please check the blog again soon. I want to answer the questions that you asked me but don't have time today.

Love, Nana Greta

Before reading this blog, I could never believe someone would(or could) do this amazing walk YOU did.I really admire your courage and determination ( only someone with lots of courage, determination and passion would do such amazing thing ). The world needs more people like you. I wish someday I'll be able to do such amazing thing . I believe people like you can do anything you belive.
