Well today is Sunday the 16th...my driver (the birthday girl yesterday) wanted to go to church so I drove her into Lewistown so she could do that...I am doing laundry, running errands and writing a wee bit...watched the Utes beat byu last evening, nice way to spend a Saturday night on the road!!!...we moved to Grass Range, MT yesterday after logging 13.3 miles (I think)...the country here is getting a bit more varied, hills, distant mountains, trees, instead of just miles and miles of grain fields...I appreciate the folks that farm this area but for me I prefer a bit more scenery...so our first week back it was five days of walking for almost 100 miles (don't have details in the laundromat)...today will be errands and football with Monday a day off to relax, watch the Broncos play and prepare for more walking...looks like two walking days and I should be through Lewistown and Grass Range where we are currently set up...at Grass Range we will head south on route 87...could very well be through Montana by the end of the month at which time the direction of the route will be SOUTH, wanna make sure there is NO snow in my future!!!...so for the first week back after three weeks off, 96.2 miles, 181,180 steps, 26 cents, three bungee cords, one "mile 2" sign (found nowhere near where mile 2 actually was), one slow moving vehicle triangle, one traffic cone, one red safety flag and one hitch pin clip...this week was walking days 49-53...15 weeks have elapsed since I started "the walk" at 80 miles per week that would be 1200 miles compared to the actual of 1098.7 with 2,068,840 steps...all on track for a June finish, assuming I find a replacement driver when my current one retires!!!...cheers
