http://walkingman2011.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 30, 2012. Day 20 - Meridian To Montgomery. I soon was in Alabama, and the next stop was in Demopolis at the Foscue House Restaurant. Where I ate lunch on day 105 of the walk. I arrived a little before opening time, but was still able to talk a few minutes with the owners, Rick and Tracy Adams. They seemed to be doing well 2 years later, I left some Virginia apple butter behind, and headed east. Rick and Tracy Adams, owners of the Foscue House restaurant in Demopolis;.

http://walkingman2011.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 31, 2010. Day 2: 19 miles uphill, with a full pack. On a twisty, dangerous, racetrack that they call Ortega Highway, all on a breakfast of a 20 oz Coke, a bag of Chips, and a piece of pound cake. And for what? A dinner of a bag of beef jerky, a can of pineapple, and a bottle of warm water .What's wrong with this picture? I am going to have to go back and revisit my plan. Mr and Mrs. Bouquet, Alan had a really great day. It was hard on him, but he hung in there and you would be rea...We we...

Thursday, April 28, 2011. Washington and Old Dominion Trail - Day 2. Tuesday, April 26, 2011. We passed by Hunter's Station. Designated as a flag stop along the railroad. We came into Vienna, and passed the Freeman House and Museum. It was getting near lunch time, and the map indicated there was a McDonald's at Mile 11 on the trail, so that's where we planned to go. We asked a biker about McDonald's, and he said there wasn't one. We looked around town and found the Vienna Inn. Jon at Herndon Station;.

Walkingman 2011: Day 19 - Delhi To Meridian
http://walkingman2011.blogspot.com/2012/12/day-19-delhi-to-meridian.html
Saturday, December 29, 2012. Day 19 - Delhi To Meridian. An important landmark in the Civil War. Two of the most dangerous roads (for walking) I encountered crossing the country are in and around Vicksburg.crossing the bridge over the Mississippi, and the road between Vicksburg and Edwards. Neither has little if any shoulder, so I just had to hope traffic was light. The road to Edwards is very rolling, so cars are coming over hills and don't see a pedestrian until sometimes very close.). Delta, MS;.

Walkingman 2011: March 2011
http://walkingman2011.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 24, 2011. Visit To Woodhill and Tryon Schools. March 24, 2011. Tuesday, March 15, was a busy day for the walkingman. The morning was spent with the 5th graders at Woodhill Elementary. School in Gastonia, and after a quick lunch, on to Bessemer City to Tryon Elementary. To talk to the 5th graders there. Eating lunch with a teacher is an interesting event.they are accustomed to 20 minutes for lunch, so not much time for talking! Southern comfort food at its best. Sunday, March 6, 2011.
