    Thanks gang. I'm really looking forward to the walk. Evan already has $58.00 in pledges! I have an old pair of work shoes that I plan to wear, they're the most comfortable pair of shoes I ever had. I always say I must walk 10 miles a day, so now we'll see if I really do! The walk should be great, we start at the Philadelphia Art Museum and walk 2.5 miles down the West River Drive then turn around and go back. The scenery will be gorgeous, the walk will take us along Boat House Row. Now, I have to get busy getting pledges!

    I am walking with my sister's boys. This is the first year that she hasn't been able to walk with them because her breast cancer that we thought had been resolved for 7 years has (in the last 2 months) metastisized to her spine, skull, liver and stomach. The 11 year old has collected over 700 dollars in pledges. Getting involved is making him feel more in control. I am very proud of all of them.
