First state down!

Hello again everyone! We are still hiking:) We made it into Maryland yesterday after hiking 19 miles where our "Trail Angel" Mrs. Chris Weaber picked us up. We stayed with The Weabers Thursday and Friday night. They have been very kind and hospitable to us... giving us warm cozy beds and excellent food! We are taking a Zero day today because of heavy rain and blisters. While walking yesterday we saw a GroundHog and 2 bald eagles. They were very beautiful. We are very thankful that God has blessed us with such friendly christian families so far to help us along the way!! We will Lord willing be crossing the Bay Bridge on Tuesday afternoon. We have to get a ride across the bridge because it is to dangerous to hike across. I hope to post more soon! Lord Bless and continue to keep us in your prayers!

Hiking in Delaware

Hello Everyone from the American Discovery Trail!
We started our hike across America on Monday and have hiked 18.5 miles so far... we have only been able to hike 1 day because of the weather, here in Milton, DE it has snowed around 5- 5 1/2" and we have to wait another day for it to melt. It is amazing the amount of nice people we have met so far! We were barely out of Cape Henlopen State Park ( the start of the ADT) when a nice lady stopped and asked if we needed any help! We were blessed by a nice couple who payed for our lunch at the China Garden the day we started. The Conner Family has also been a huge blessing to us. Mrs. Serinda Conner is the state of Delaware coordinator for the American Discovery Trail. She has taken us to a really nice Bagel shop called Surf Bagel and had us over for dinner last night:) Surf Bagel sponsored us with a dozen fresh bagels for the road.
We plan on hiking again tomorow if the weather permits. Please continue to keep us in your prayers! Lord Bless

I can do this!

Hello everyone! We have around 16 days until we leave our comfortable life here in Alabama for a more Cross bearing life of hiking across the United States!! We will be hiking from Cape Henlopen State Park , Delaware to Point Reyes National Seashore , Ca. for a total of around 5,000 miles :-) What an adventure! We are hoping to spread the love of our Saviour Jesus Christ to ALL that we meet! Please keep us in your prayers daily as we strive to serve Him through this. May God Bless you! 
Happy Hiking Katy Did
