A journey of 2600 miles begins with...

... a couple days in bed, apparently.

My brave and crazy friend who is about to begin her 2600-mile journey from Mexico to Canada, is laid up in bed with a fever, chills, sore throat, aches and pains everywhere.

As she put it, Canada ain't going anywhere, so she is resting up and taking it all in stride.

Please join me in wishing her good health so that we can all live vicariously through her for the next six months!! I told my mom what she was doing and the first thing Mom said in response was, "don't ever tell me that you're doing that..." Followed immediately by, "tell her good luck!"
