Should be a fun trip!
Day 128
My route to Idaho
August 1st, 2010
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:
see ya next fall….anothe state down….two to go…
Hmmmm….guess they might have to add “push carts” after this…
Is the “road closed” for all travel or just for passenger cars and trailers? Matt, are you going to have to push the cart down/up some ravines (where the bridges are closed)?
Wow…this is a little alarming. Matt may be “off-roading” soon!
Don’t worry about Matt, Candice. No bridges on this route — just dirt, rocks, trees…. and BEARS! And now he’s already safely through.
Thanks Lori – I’m glad to hear that! That he’s safely through! Looks like he had a rough road to push that cart on/up.
Maybe I’m out of line here, but here’s how my thought process is going at this moment: whenever I see the word “primitive” it’s usually in conjuction with a campground. In that context, it means the area is undeveloped. I read that as “not even an outhouse.” It has just occurred to me that Matt is walking through a whole lot of primitive areas. Suddenly, walking across the country seems a little rougher than it used to.
How lovely! That means you don’t have to worry about car dust or people driving too fast around blind corners :)
I’m sure you just thought oh well, here I go….
