Keep the comments coming

We're able to post to the blog from Jenny's phancy fone but we can only post comments when we can access a regular computer.

That means we cannot always respond in a timely manner to your comments. So we just want to say that we read all the comments, we enjoy them immensely and will respond whenever the opportunity presents itself.

Keep 'em coming!

  1. Rick & Jenny - We love reading your blog. Tell us about your daily routine. Do you walk every day, or take days off? How many miles? When do you get on the road? Arrive in camp? If you reach Point Reyes, we hope you’ll come north to Seattle. A room of your own with sauna for sore toes awaits.

  4. I realize that you're well into your trek, but as I've been reading your postings that describe some of the challenges of securing provisions along the way, I wanted to weigh in about the goat thing. It still may be something for you to consider. I've been doing some research on the subject of goats (capra hircus), and I think it's worth mentioning that goats were among the first domesticated animals. Beginning about 10,000-11,000 years ago, Neolithic farmers in the Near East began keeping small herds of goats for their milk and meat, and for their dung for fuel, as well as for materials for clothing and building (hair, bone, skin and sinew). Might be worth considering acquiring a small herd for the rest of the trek (particularly for those upcoming mountain hikes!) Love you both! Carrie

  5. The goat could also come in handy in fighting off other goats...Jodi Harrington had a run-in with an ornery herd of them in CO, I remember.

    Hope the plantar fasciitis gets better soon!
