We Made It on Time

November 6, 2001

Hi everyone.

This morning at 0600, Dusty Steedman, myself and about 25 other terrific people proudly handed over the U.S. flag to the state of Arizona. We were on time after a journey of 478 miles across the Land Of Enchantment.

It has been a terrific time for everyone. For me it has been a "Journey Through the Spirit of America".

I want to thank everyone who has made this possible. I especially want to thank my wife Ruth who has been the power behind the scenes in making this a success.

I have had about 3 hours sleep in the last 52 hours, so I am going to get some rest and then get back with you tomorrow with more news.

I would appreciate if you would share your thoughts and feelings about the Flag Run with the rest of us. You can email your inputs to diaries@flagrun2001.org. You can also submit pictures. Together let us enjoy the experiences of this great event.
