Day 4 -- We're in the news

Not 30 minutes into the walk on Wednesday we were hailed by a reporter in Lewes. We spent a few minutes on her front porch answering questions. Here's the resulting article.

Today we crossed the Delaware/Maryland line and are in Denton, Maryland for the night.

  1. Yeh!! A new state! The article is fun. I wonder how many papers will write about you. Interesting that you are just leaving the DQ when they took your pic. Brenda

  2. Well, I forwarded the article and blog link to a ton of people.

    but how did the reporter know to even approach you?? are you wearing a big embarrassing sign - ew?!

    Wow, maryland already! selfishly hoping your progress is slow so we can feed you dinner despite our family obligation in NYC this weekend.

    I think the paper was notified by the ADT people who are always looking to promote the trail. She also told us a group (?) was leaving in the next week or two on horseback. Maybe we can hitch a ride.
