I'm going to try to post some photos. We are bringing a camera and a solar charger so there will lucious photos galore! There have been people who say we are crazy to do this x-country adventure....Well, here we are, The Crazies!!!!
Well congrats - by my accounts it worked! Was hard to know how to leave a comment but guess I figured that out if you are reading this. Love the crazies -hope all your prayers and non-prayers are delivered!! I ride with you in spirit (easier option eh?) Raychel
It works for us... Love the photo! You guys are the Crazies! Wish we could be at the send off in SF, but some of us have to work and go to school. Looking forward to more fun photos.
Take good care and take it easy (as much as can be said for a trip of this sort). Keep the calories coming. You all are skinny to begin with. What will be left? I know you will all have wonderous experiences.
You carry with you the envy and admiration of your whole little town. Every couple of hours we'll give you a mental push, telekinetically easing you up and over the next hill. If you feel the breeze at your back, it's not us, really, but we wish it were. Once a traveller said: If you get lost, get really lost. But you won't. None of you will. Ever.
Here's the thing: Be careful, be cool. Here's the word: Rattlesnakes Here's the Hope: The world will be one again. Here's the Dream: All good things. and most especially Here's to you. Lots of love, Aunt-y Vette
Oh I forgot to mention this. Beofre I made sure I knew well that you were at the Guenoc winery. We have been there..and when we went our mission was to buy some of there great wines. The Petit Sirah for instance. A friend of ours is a good friend of the wine-maker..and now you are under the same trees it took us hours to find. Bless your journey. Yvette
Here's the petition we're bringing to Congress. It's not a clean copy, but it'll work. Print it up, gather signatures, and send it to: J. Oman, 8594 Faber Rd., Faber, VA 22938.
Petition For Cooling Our Planet
WHEREAS: The single greatest challenge human beings face is imminent climate change caused by the increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide brought on in large part through the burning of fossil fuels.

3. Raising automobile mileage standards to a minimum of 40 MPG.

you even as we do other things, there is that part that is with you

We have been there..and when we
went our mission was to buy some
of there great wines. The Petit Sirah for instance. A friend of ours is a good friend of the wine-maker..and now you are under the same trees it took us hours to find. Bless your journey. Yvette
