A Note From Darrell

To my Family and Friends:

How do I speak to this trip, this experience, this journey of a life time and how I feel to be complete with it? To write or talk about such a purely emotional state can only partially express the visceral delight that courses through this totally under human powered achievement. Nine years, six thousand miles – the miles alone are only significant in light of what I have learned along the way. Learning that stepping out on faith in the face of “not knowing” offers a unique chance to experience a greater richness of life both internal and external then I could have ever perceived.

I can never say it often enough how important it has been to receive the support from all who found interest in following my personal quest. I thank you with the utmost sincerity.

I will continue to post more details about the trip on my website and blog as I sift through the many pages of written journal entries, photos and personal reflections in the weeks and months to come. I will also be offering accounts of my adventure through slide show presentations and personal writings and maybe even a book. No promises on that last one right away.

Thanks for listening and stay turned.

I am well, very well,
Darrell
