This morning I opened up my email to find a short note from a cousin of mine whom I haven't talked to in a long time. Her note contained a website address about her brother (also my cousin) and his friends who are about to do something incredibly stupid....They are walking from Chicago, Illinois to San Francisco, California to raise money for the American Cancer Society!
They are about to start their journey in two hours. Their progress will be tracked on the website. You can donate in three different ways, 1) through PayPal, 2) $$ per mile, or 3) buy Stupid Stuff from the Stupid Store.
Anyway, check it out http://www.youguysarestupid.com And support the cause!

Read through the site. How funny! LOL Have they left yet?
I am not sure if they left yet. I'm waiting for my cousin to email me back. I don't have her phone number...I should call my sister for the digits.
Ha...I checked the Trip timer at the top right hand corner. They have been walking for 5 hours. Am going to check the road map they are suppose to keep updated.

This is very noble. My daughter is about to graduate from high school so I think I'll purchase something.
NightMoon I want to hike the appalachian trail for my fiftieth b-day. I only have 3 years to go so I need to start planning! Tell me more! PM if you like.
Thanks you guys! I saw some of the messages you wrote on the Guest Book! Keep it up!
They are seriously on their way! They have been updating their journals and should have some pictures up soon! Its now 5 days and 3 hours!
God bless those who are willing to do what we can't!
