Milton to Atlantic Ocean; Distance = 16.5 Miles; People Met = 27+
I’m posting this the day after we finished the American Discovery Trail. You probably were expecting something profound but, frankly, I’m too tired. Besides the events of yesterday we had to get up at 5:00 a.m. this morning for an in-studio interview at the television station WMDT 47. Here’s there newsclip of us.
We still have the walk to Connecticut; maybe I’ll think up something profound along the way. For now here’s a pictorial essay of our finish, the first two people to do so walking west to east continuously on the American Discovery Trail.
Cindy, Bill, Jefferson, Amy and Joe at the Vintage Cafe in Milton, our starting point.

We were greeted enthusiastically by Serinda's class as we walked by Cape Henlopen High School

Serinda Conner knew we were coming so she baked us a cake

Congratulations on completing such an amazing journey! Blessings to you all.
Thank you, Michelle. Now we’re on to Connecticut!
Yeah!! Congratulations. Well done. Do let us know when you will be here. Can’t wait!

It was a pleasure meeting you on your journey of humanity.
I am in awe of your passion . Wish there was more time
to have conversation with you both. I practice kindness daily and
often feel as there are not enough people out there who do. Thank you and
God Speed!
