Happy Memorial Day. Valda & I thought we would be in Indiana by now and having a bar-b-que with brothers and sisters-in-laws this weekend, but alas, it is not to be. We are still in Tullahoma, TN and will be for about 3 more weeks or so. There is a rumor afloat now that has us going to Dalton, GA to work after Tullahoma, so don't even know if IN is in our future or not this year. I guess I should know better than to mention something before it is etched in stone. Oh well.
Got letters off to Etonic Worldwide (Etonic shoes, which I've worn for the last 15 years) soliciting shoes for the walk. Will know something in a week or so. Also, will post a map of my route. Hope it looks okay. I've played with a Streets & Trips program and scanned a route map in, so we'll see in a few moments if it works or not.
Went off one morning this week without my billfold. About three hours later, I missed it. Called Valda, and sure enough it was in my drawer. Normally, Valda sort of goes through a check list each morning and asks if I have everything, but this morning she wasn't too awake and so didn't ask me if I had my billfold. So...I'm blaming her.
Got to see our son Chris on Friday the 25th in Bowling Green, KY for a couple of hours. He drove down from Louisville and we drove up and met for breakfast. Hadn't seen him since Disney World last January a year ago. He looks good, and it was good seeing him (see photo). Will keep you posted on progress with sponsors. Hope the map posting makes sense.

Happy Memorial Day to you also, Veteran. Love the map!! Now I'll feel as though we're on the trip with you. Great idea about Etonics as I suspect you will go through a pair or two along the way. I'm still homebound...Rich is doing GREAT!!! Know all too well the "written in cement" comment....enough of that except to say that since you've had a couple of encounters with the police perhaps the wallet in your back pocket is a good idea....yeah, right, we all know full well it was Vee's fault!! Rich and Pattie
Chris looks like you, Rick. Nice shot. You and Valda are looking good!
