June 26, 2007 - C2C Made It!!!!

WE DID IT! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, TO ALL OF YOUR HELP AND SUPPORT. We entered the nations Capitol today at approximately 10:45 AM. We stopped in at Arlington National Cemetery in recognition of all who gave us the freedoms and liberties that we have in the greatest country in the world. It was an incredible site. We took some time out to tour the sites and scenes from the White House, the Capitol building, the Vietnam Memorial Wall, the World War II Memorial, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, the Korean War Memorial, the Washington Monument, and the Iwo Jima Memorial. What we accomplished pales in comparison to what our forefathers sacrificed.

Our tour of D.C. concluded around 3:00 PM this afternoon then we picked up and drove to Ocean City, Maryland to officially conlude the "Coast to Coast" ride. The weather and roads held out and we were able to reach our final destination.

Thank you to all of our families for the love, support, patience, and understanding of why we ventured on this journey. Thank you to all of our friends, co-workers, and individuals behind the scenes who sacrificed so much to make this happen. Lastly, thank you God for keeping us safe and providing us with the willpower to see the journey to its end and finding it in our hearts to always help those who are less fortunate.
