I have changed my route again. I will not take route 52. I am now back on my original planned route. I change routes when it is possible to find a safer highway (wider shoulders) to walk on. My route home basically:

US-1 SOUTH to US-601 SOUTH to US-301 SOUTH to US-1 SOUTH.

At Camden, SC I will get on US 601 S. At Bamberg, SC I will get on US-301 S. and take it to Homeland, GA where I will get on US-1 S. which I will stay on until I get home to beautiful Vero Beach, Florida!

I will be within 50 miles or pass thru theses South Carolina cities: Florence, Hartsville, Camden, Columbia, Lexington, Sumter, Orangeburg, Barnwell, and Walterboro.

Just outside Warrenton, VA on US Rte 15 south headed for Culpepper where I’ll get on US Rte 522 south. I’ll stay on that for nearly 60 miles and then take several state routes to US 360.

 

 

Steve just made it to Maryland..

As I am not permitted to walk on interstate highways. My routes thru DE and MD are too numerous to list. To get my exact route: Go to Google Maps, put in Brandywine, DE to Harpers Ferry, WV. Then choose ‘car’ as transportation mode. Check ‘no highways’ and ‘no tolls’ as route choices. That is my route thru Delaware and then Maryland. For the rest of my route, simply add Vero Beach, Florida.

 

 

4/14/14. Lucked out last night and made it into Crescent, Oregon and a motel room just before dark. Didn’t think I would make the 19 miles from Chemult, as I never left until 11:30. I flat out boogied, for an old man. I’m getting ready to walk across the street to get breakfast and COFFEE! Then I will continue on toward Bend 45 miles north. And, I’m happy!

4/13/14. I will leave my room in Chemult, Oregon this morning and continue toward Bend on U.S. 97 north.
