Only Jon Trotter is willing to walk there. This is what it looked like when he arrived from his three week walk from Memphis, TN to my place last night. He's raising money for a Wiener Dog Rescue out of OK by making it all the way to SDAC on foot.

Here are the pics.

WTG Jon!

Hey, there's a wrecker with a pair of good doors for my voyager near there, could you sling one over each shoulder and walk them up for me, they won't fit in anyone's trunk?



j/k :D

Oh man. He just kept laughing when I got there and then proceeded to take the pictures. Been a long couple of weeks.

Dont forget all those damn spare parts in the back. Those little wieners better stand to attention for all I'm doing for them.

Uh... One thing I gained in my divorce is a therapist, being concerned about my mental status he prescribed me some little white pills. They work. I'm gonna bring some extra for you other JT:confused:

If you actually walk to SDAC I will vote Spirit of SDAC for you whether you have a car or not. Deal?

Yeah actually, I looked at google maps and it looks about the same again from Cordes' place, so if'n he took 3 weeks to do 363, he's gonna be a tad late... somebody pick him up passing through Fort Wayne, then drop him back off there Sunday night :D

This pic was sent to me from IN. He stopped by a woman's place who runs a big rescue for them . He has really picked up the pace, but I'm sure that I'll have to pick him up somewhere on 69 or just on to 94 though.

To be honest, I'm not really sure yet. We actually have a relatively busy Friday planned up there so I'm not sure how early we'll be leaving. I'll let you know when I find out.

Jon should have my phone number, if it looks like you'll be through late AM let me know. There are 4-5 cars coming from our area.

That's cool. I'm assuming that he'll be at least for Ft. Wayne by that time, but I'll call him to see what he thinks it'll look like on Friday.

Jon is a true humanitarian. Just look at how deftly he holds that weiner! That's a happy looking weiner, you can tell that isn't his first time cradling one in his hands. Good work Jon!
