We had a great 7.64 Mile walk today. We headed out in the country and headed down Northside Drive. We have walked up and down this road hundreds and hundreds of times but this is a first. As you can see in the photo’s with the cows. As we got closer to them they started running up to the fence and greeted us as we walked by. They were in a row. It was just amazing. We then stopped to see the buffalo and then continued to 127. We headed 127 South and we met John with his two dogs. He walked with us for a bit to help us honor this hero. It was a great walk. I want to thank my friend Robert for walking with us today and I want to thank all who honked, waved, and saluted in helping us honor this hero. We had 227 honks today. Thank you.
Army Sgt. Riley Brandt will not be forgotten !
