hello everyone and congrats to those that just finished their solo crossings!
my mom is attempting a solo crossing this july 15th.  she'll be celebrating her 50th birthday somewhere out on the death valley highway.  we'll be keeping a blog that tracks her progress as best we can.  if anyone's interested it's already up and running at terryabrams.blogspot.com.
there's a little mock video preview i made there that shows a tiny bit of her training.  its fun!  ;)

Hi Terrylee,
I just sent your mom an email, trying to get more information on her run.
I'd like to post her on the "solo" page as a 7/15/07 start, and then later post her results and award a buckle. Need to know her home town. I'm hoping she will get my email and respond before she goes. Can you help?

For Terry Abrams:

I just went to your blog and the song "The Final Countdown" immediately loaded - I have that on my iPod and did that ever bring back memories of training for the BW Solo!!

I read about you and your quest and the reasons behind it, not to mention all the help you'll have from some wonderful people in your life.

Wish I could be there to root you on every step of the way.  I'll be thinking of you...can't wait to hear all about your adventure with your loved ones.

Happy Trails,

Connie Karras
