What were you doing when…

Most of the road signs in Pennsylvania have a date written on the back, presumably the date of installation. This seems like a good policy in case this information is otherwise lost. But I have a feeling the person who put up this sign would have no problem recalling the exact date it was installed.

Another grassroots donor

April 10th, 2010



A few women stopped their car in front of Millheim Small Engine to take photos with me. The owner of the establishment (Henry?), pictured with his daughter Emily, came over to see if I needed anything to drink or eat. I told him I was all set, and he stuck a $20 bill in my hand.

Emily's response to the amount of walking I'm doing: "I hate that."
