We had a great week. We left Napa last Sunday and are currently in Martell, CA. I will pick up the route at the Wal-Mart tomorrow and head through Martell and Jackson. The elevation is around 1000′ and we passed a 2000′ elevation sign on the way to the campground yesterday. The roads have been much better earlier in the week and we are now on CA 88. I guess I have been more adept at my walking and I don’t seem to have any problems with my blisters anymore.

We had a newspaper Interview in Lodi yesterday, and today we got a call from DH of Lodi who tracked us down and gave us a $100 for Gateway For Cancer Research. People never cease to amaze me! 

Anyway, things are progressing fine and we’ve settled into a routine of sorts. For those of you who want to know, I start out at 8:00am and walk till 11:00am. I take a two hour lunch/rest break and then walk from 1:00pm to around 4:00pm. I then take another 2 hour dinner/rest break and, if possible, l try to walk another couple of miles after 6:00pm. This seems to work okay and we are always trying out different routines. Nothing I have planned is chiseled in stone. I try to always be flexible! 🙂
