Start of our Journey to Hike across America........

We started our journey on Friday heading to Delaware and had some delays on our trip along the way. We stayed in NC then drove to DC hoping to spend two days there before starting our hike. Well we drove in circles for nearly three hours and never found one parking spot so we left stressed and decided to drive on to DE and we will walk through DC on our hike. We spent Sunday getting all of our gear ready for the big day,Monday. We went to the starting point and walked on the very cold beach, climbed a old 75 foot tall military tower that was used to shoot German ships during WW2, then we had lunch at cracker barrel. It was here we met Angela a professing Muslim, we were able to share Jesus with her and and she was very receptive, please keep her in your prayers that the seeds we sowed will grow in her heart. We then went to find our way along the trail before we physical start our journey in the morning. Please pray for us we are expecting alot of snow and storms on Tuesday. We will be walking in it. We will blog as we can.

God Bless you all and Happy Hiking
