I was sitting in McDonald's eating a burger and noticed a little girl watching me. She came over and asked if that was my cart sitting outside. She recognized my picture on the cart, and stopped by to say hello. That was my introduction to Emily Reynolds, Seagoville, TX. She soon brought over her older sister and brother, Brittany and Gordon, Jr. Gordon is in the 10th grade, Brittany in the 7th, and Emily in the 4th. They were very interested in my trip, and couldn't believe how far I was walking.
Emily and Brittany are both in line speed skaters, and Brittany went to the Olympic Training Center in CO and qualified for Nationals. Gordon is a math whiz......tell him your age and birth date and he'll tell you on what day of the week you were born. Brittany asked if I'd seen the new water tower in Seagoville (which I had). It was fun talking to them and their father, Gordon, Sr.
No strangers in a small town like Seagoville, TX.
I'm a resident of Crandall, Texas, and I saw your cart outside McDonald's last night, so I just had to look up your blog. Good luck on your journey!
