Grandmother Walks 3,200 Miles Across United States

What can I say about this week's video inspiration. I saw Granny D on The View this morning (please don't hold that against me) and thought her story was inspirational. You see Granny D - as her name implies - is a grandmother who walked 3,200 miles across the United States in 1999 to express her disgust for campaign reform. Then, in 2003, she drove more than 20,000 miles on a voter registrationlinks drive. I know this may be a little political for an outdoor blog, but I'm inspired by her walk across the United States. Hey, if she can do it, so can I. Right?

Watch the video and tell me if she doesn't inspire you to make a difference. You can also catch a documentary about her journey on HBO on October 18, 2007.
