After walking 1,000 miles south, 2,600 miles east, I’m poised to turn north on Saturday, May 26. I haven’t etched in every last stop between here and the White House, and for now, I’ve only pieced together a probable draft for the next nearly 600 miles. I will walk north from Pensacola, back into Alabama, through Andalusia, Montgomery, Tuskegee and Auburn. I then will reach the Georgia border, and proceed through Peachtree City, Atlanta, and other towns before sliding into Greenville, South Carolina. From Greenville, it’s either on to Charlotte, if I feel invited. If not Charlotte, I’ll be ready and willing to head on up and into Asheville– which I’ve been told great things about now for over a year. It will take me months to reach Greenville, SC, and I probably won’t nail down any subsequent routes till I reach Groovy Greenville.
