Hello all. Well its the end of day 1 & Im am still alive. Ive camped up somewhere in New Jersey by a very nice river, about 13 miles from Staten Island. It's gonna be squirrel for breakfast too if they dont stop dropping things on my head. So far there's been no blisters, muggings, crying or passing out. I did see a pretty cool car chase in manhattan though, not that im condoning car theft. Still hasnt sunk in that I've actually started, oh well, only 2,985 miles to go....
