It is happening - Part 2

After an extremely stressful morning I got some wonderful helpers and managed to head out of Hutchinson about 4pm. Traffic was terrible across the Cities and with one short stop I arrived in Madison about 10:30pm. Thanks to Red for wrapping my entire load in tarps and with the webbing on top, nothing moved. I did feel like the Clampetts on the Beverly Hillbillies. Thanks to Chris and Tera for working so hard and getting me on my way. Today some last minute details - a Spanish - English dictionary and batteries for my flashlight, tonight a wonderful Indian dinner and tomorrow morning morning it is off to paradise. Maybe a soggy paradise as it is rainy season but paradise all the same.

Heather just mentioned that I said I would stay in Costa Rica as long as I could walk. I am not off to a very good start as I have sciatica in my left hip and leg and I am having charlie horses in my right leg. I may have to do transfer assistance tomorrow. Once I relax in Orosi I am sure it will all go away.
