I'm walking across America.
That's the idea, at least. I'm walking westward from New York City for nine months or so. If everything goes according to plan, I'll be in Oregon when the clock runs out. If nothing goes according to plan, maybe I'll end up in Peru or Mongolia or Pennsylvania. You can read all about the details of my trip if you're so inclined.

Here's my progress so far:

that’s the kind of stuff that gets me goin
I climbed to that once, to read the sign. It’s one of the worst access iron furnaces in the area, because of the road construction. The whole area used to have Iron Furnaces around, like “Helen Furnace” which I think may also be “Highland Furnace?”
