Flagstaff, AZ   14 March 2007
Sorry, no pictures with this post. Just had a quick conversation with Kelley on the phone (actually yesterday) who passed that they've made it safely to Flagstaff, AZ.

The arrival in Flagstaff marked their 30th day on the road. So far they are averaging 14 miles per day. 20 miles a day is the goal, but due to unforeseen problems with their RV, their pace has been slowed at times, forcing more days off in a row than they'd like. The days their feet do actually meet the road, they feel comfortable walking the full 20-plus miles required.

But, as things go, the RV is experiencing problems again (!!!) and they are held up until repairs are once again completed.

Miles to Go: 1,131
