GMO Free USA - Running The Country

Running into Flagstaff felt like our first major running milestone. And Flagstaff has treated us well. Thanks to Helen Selander, we had a speaking engagement at the East Flagstaff Community Library Saturday morning.

The people of Arizona are doing great things for the GMO Free movement. They’re gathering signatures to put GMO labeling on the ballot this fall. (Carolyn Thompson explains the process in the opening minutes of my presentation.

Thanks to our new friend Debbie Noel who connected with us at the Williams Visitor Center, we enjoyed good food, a beautiful place to stay, and we are now friends with Robert, Zach, Gary, and Barb. We bought a few needed items including new shoes for both David and me. And now we’re back on the road.

Thank you, Flagstaff! Onward we go!

We shoot a lot of video while Running For a GMO Free USA. But we rarely have good Internet connections, so very little makes it to our blog.

Thanks to the generosity of a new good friend, we’ve got good Internet as well as good food, friends and a beautiful place to crash and rest up until tomorrow.

So while we’re in Flagstaff, I uploaded three random videos as follows:

The War Train–We’ve seen hundreds of trains between Huntington Beach and Flagstaff but only two trains that I would call a War Train. Take a look. Does this train outside of Needles, California, look like a War Train to you?

No GMO–There’s a stretch of road near Roy’s legendary gas station on Route 66 where hundreds of people have used rocks to leave their names in the embankment that lines the road. David and I left our own unique message.

GMO Free USA Kiss–Our daughter, Erika, and her hubby, Russell, spent the weekend with us recently near Arizona’s Grand Canyon Caverns. Erika ran with David and me and presented a GMO Free USA seed packet and message with a not-so-unsuspecting passerby. That’s not all she shared.

Our message to you is this: Thanks for your friendship and support!
See you on the road!
