Hudson to Minonk: 22 miles : Dropped off in Hudson by Bob Sears and his red truck. Took off at 6:10 A.M. Walked thru Kappa where I was met by my friends George Miller and his wife Janine. George walked a mile with me, we shared a chocolate donut and they were off and on their way to Georgia to visit relatives. I then continued past El Paso, past Panola where I took shelter in an old barn from a wicked rain torm. The door was open but the residents of the barn were two hound dogs. It took me about 5 minutes to calm them down and for them to allow me to sit out the storm with them. I resumed my walk about 45 minutes later, walking past Woodford and on into Minonk, arriving at 3:20. I was picked up by my host Jennifer Tooley who lives in and is the village clerk of Rutland.
Theresa and Anna are hanging with me and we are all happy to see your safe and sound and didn't get eaten by the hounds or shot by their owner. Rest up, we love you.
