Earthday April 24th
Today is the day that Bernie Palmatier retraced the miles we walked together 20 years ago on my first journey across the country. Twenty years older, I thought we looked the same, except that Bernie had white hair, and I didn't keep silent.

I wake up with a wakeup call at 5:30 am. In the next hour and a half I pack putting together what I think I will need for the day. It really looks like it may rain so I have my rain jacket and a new pair of rain pants, the soft case for my banjo, first aid for the feet and my bottle of water.

The day began at 6 am with a live chat with high school students in Bahrain, United Emirates. They were seven hours ahead of me in New Stanton, Pennsylvania were I had arrived the day before in order to prepare for my Earth Day Planetwalk.
