At age 72, I am planning to walk across American to bring awareness of how exercise etc. can help bring about a healthier heart and vascular system, lower blood pressure, etc., and to raise funds, as well, for the American Heart Association. I welcome you to follow me on my journey! My plan for 2010 is to walk from Lewes, DE to St. Louis, MO or further if possible. In 2005 I was leading a sedentary life and weighed 201 lbs. I started walking and then running and lost 36 lbs, significantly lowered my blood pressure, my bad cholesterol, and raised my good cholesterol equally. My journey will commence on or about April 30th. Help the A.H.A. by donating thru the web site: Michianaheartwalk.kintera.org/johnwalksamerica. If all goes well I hope to be in St. Louis sometime in September 2010.

Shelly. Doing what she seems to do best! RELAXING!!!!
The old High School (Lincoln High School) more commonly referred to as PHS, Plymouth High School)where I was a proud graduate in 1955. Having spent 5 years in this well constructed building. One year in junior high and 4 in high school. The bell is from the old Washington School. Cast in 1874.
St. Thomas Episcopal Church.
To some it is just a weed. But look closer, at the intricate design and the beauty it displays.
A portion of the Greenway Trail along the Yellow River. Plymouth, IN
Took a short 5 mile walk around the old home town this AM. Walked the 2 mile Plymouth Greenway Trails, through Centennial Park, Magnetic Park, and Founders Park, as well as some of the streets around town. I am posting a couple of pictures.
