Unfortunately Jen and I ran into some financial struggles, due to her accident on day 2. It put us in a tough situation with still more than half the ride to go. We evaluated the situation, as we do when climbing, and realized that our ride was over, for now. We will regroup, replan, and prepare to do the trip either next year or the year after, since I have another year of school, it may be difficult to plan for next year. One thing is for certain, we will do the ride again!! It was a learning exprerience that will provide us with good knowledge and insight for the next time around. We were able to make new friends along the way and become reaquainted with an old friend. Thank you to Ben Gilmore, our friend in Jackson, WY, for allowing us to stay at his place and plan our trip back to NH. Good luck to keith and nat, don't loose sight of the reason for the ride!

Doug & Jen,
Sorry to hear that your journey has been delayed by a year or two. You both have experienced what many have only dreamt about doing. I'm sure you will be back on the road in no time.
It will be great to see you both again, and to hear about all that you have experienced on the trail.
I'm so proud of both of you especially Jen for not giving up and continuing forth.
Have a safe trip home!
C-ya soon!
T.
