Baked some cookies for a few neighbors/friends of one of my stops this week!
Did you know studies show Americans feel increasingly alone?
Sharing food is an excellent way to make a new connection on your street, or to brighten up a friend’s day! Try to get a little conversation going while you’re at it!

Last week I met a very interesting 70 year old named Patty. She shared a few lovely thoughts on long-distance sailing/road-tripping, and going greater good!

SCENERY OF THE WEEK

Crossing a very nice low bridge a few dozen miles east of Rochester.

THOUGHTS

A few new stats:
540 miles down, 2,600 to go; 1/6 of the way done! 🙂
Number of steps I took on August 16: 47,782 !!
(someone gave me an old-school stepometer)
Number of roadside banana peels so far: 48!

A favorite memory of the week: hanging out chatting with Charley and Don (above) for breakfast on their back porch, surrounded by their amazing animal-friendly garden, watching lots of birds and critters running around. 🙂
