Yeah, the whole thing. I'm going to start in Georgia and end in Maine. I'm guessing it's going to take five months if I average around 17 miles a day or so.

Other than that I'm trying to descide what other amenities I'll need, like a stove and water filter and whatnot. I'm gonna have someone, maybe my mom, mailing us supplies.
