At 9:05 am (pacific time) I did the ceremonial wheel dip in the Atlantic Ocean. My departure point was actually from Sandy Hook, New Jersey. You can see the Manhattan skyline in the background. Turned out to be a discouraging day with my first flat tire and getting lost in East Brunswick, New Jersey. Also, the combined weight of gear and trailer exceeds 100 pounds. Needless to say I'm quite exhausted. Day 1, 80.39 miles in exactly 13 hours!You will be seeing more of that paper doll. It is based on the children's book Flat Stanley. My daughter Hannah's second grade class is currently working on this project and has asked me to participate. So, where will "Flat Hannah" pop up next?
