I was very proud to have had the pleasure of hosting you for a night along your route. All of us who shared dinner with you were quite overwhelmed with your spirit and attitude. This is the first fan letter that I have ever writted, but I believe that you deserve fan mail for your selflessness in completing this project. I trust that you did not get blown off the road in the wind and rain you faced as you left Bethlehem for your trek thru the white mountains on your way to Maind and your final destination.
Stay well.

Dear Mike,
I passed you today on Route 4 in VT between Killington and Woodstock. I was snug and warm in my car and there you were with your jogging stroller, running in the torrential rain against a beautiful fall foliage backdrop. It has been raining for two days and many roads are flooded. I wondered out loud, why someone would be jogging in such horrible weather, and my friend riding with me told me that she saw your story on the news. Ironically, today is the funeral of Lance Corporal Anthony James “Chuckie” Rosa from Swanton, VT, who lost his life in Afghanistan. What a courageous journey you are taking and I thank you for honoring the courage of so many heroes who have made the ultimate sacrifice. What an incredible tribute to those who have served and lost their lives in Iraq. Peace be with you as you make your way…

Mike, you & your team have reached so many lives by what you are doing. As a member of Patriot Guard Riders I know that there are a lot of love and respect in this country for our military. You have reafirmed this belief. I have looked over the list of names that are on the flags you are planting. So many names I know because I stood beside thier graves or in a flag line for thier funeral. I have gotten to know the families of some of these fallen Heroes. My heart goes out to all of them. Thank you again for what you do and thank you to your team. I will be sad not to be able to read your blog each day, but I know your journey must end. Many of us will be there in spirit with you. There is a reason God put this on your heart to do. It has strengthened your faith and helped us remember our fallem. Thank you and God Bless.

I live in Maine and read the article in my American Legion News. Does anyone know where and when Mike will be going thru Maine? If not,how about when he will be in Rockland which is not far from where I live. Any info would be appreciated.
