For the outpouring of faith, hope and love that I have received when Bob was sick I spent two years thinking of how I could give back. On a whim I decided back in November of last year that I would take my Pink Pony across country to raise awareness for breast cancer. This Saturday, October 1st, I am leaving on what could be the biggest journey of my lifetime.
At 12 Noon there will be a gathering of cruise cars, friends and family for the big send off of a month long trip to Burbank CA. There will be several cruisers joining me as far as Erie PA and Cleveland OH but after that I'm on my own. Or am I?
Throughout the year I have found support from my family and friends but even more so, total strangers that I will finally meet face to face. With the help of friends, Facebook and certain magazines, I was suddenly in contact with several people across the USA. Cruise nights are in place, fundraisers are ready to go, TV and Radio spots are waiting. All I have to do is start driving. I can't wait! Although I wish I had another week to prepare, I wish it were Saturday! I have many new friends to meet and all for a good cause.
It's Thursday! It will be a hectic day as I start packing, finalizing my routes, making the rest of the hotel reservations, making sure the last minute details are dealt with. Stay tuned as I blog my adventures of 110 hours of driving for the month of October.
