Gut Check!

When I spoke to DJ she was about 50 miles from her stopping point. We didn't talk long because a storm was right on her heels. It rained on her again today and she rode on gravel for 75 miles. She sounded a little tired, but considering what she has been through she is holding up remarkably well. She will spend the evening at a campsite deep in the heart of bear country. You know it's funny, DJ has met quite a few large powerfully built men on this trip that were not afraid to admit that they would never attempt traveling through all 50 states alone. A friend of ours said it best, proclaiming that DJ had larger testicles than any man he had ever met. The truth is DJ is a brave incredibly strong woman, who's strength comes from her commitment to what she believes is a worthy cause. Until next time... God Bless. Updated by DJ's husband Mark.
