So after about 35 days on the road, I met up with hundreds and hundreds of people along my tour. I shot 11,700 photos total, and a bunch of video. I have finally processed all the shots from the trip and posted 2400 shots here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mikehedge/sets/72157623954296052/

Along my long journey I made it to Minnesota!

Jeremiah and Michelle have been friends of mine for many years, but I rarely find myself in Minnesota, so I took the opportunity to get some jumpshots!! It was a blast.

of course I had to do a jumpshot as well:
