Can you see the red dot? That's where we are, at Mountain Grove, Missouri. I entered Missouri near the northwestern border, so you can see that I have walked a long ways east and almost to the southern border. Still, Missouri is a big place, and it will take me two more weeks to walk a bit farther east and over that southern border into Arkansas.
Walking is proving to be more difficult this time of year than I thought it would. The weather is a a factor, as I am reluctant to drag Arlo out for too long if it is too cold or too wet, and it is always cold and wet now. Also, someone put up No Trespassing signs on the route I used to take in the morning, so I am working on another route.
A bit of a lesser factor is that I don't feel the need to continually exceed my own goals, so I have toned it down a bit. Still, I hit at least 10,000 steps every day this month so far, although I have walked around my living room a few nights to get the last steps in.
The plan going forward then is to grind out the next few months, then maybe pick up the pace on the home drive as the weather gets better and we approach Florida.
