August 12 2017 - Todays Welcome

Today's welcome goes out to the wonderful family (father, daughter and son) from Milan, Italy I met on the streets of Georgetown today.  I love my dogs for many reasons, but clearly one of those reasons is the chance it gives me to meet good, friendly people like this family.

I did not have any OnTheRoad (click here) patches with me. But if you read this blog posting before you leave town, let me know your last name and I will drop some off at Georgetown suites for you on Sunday.  I can be reached at edmulrenin@gmail.com.  Or I will send them to you in Milan if you send me your contact information.

Ed and Donner

RIP Ed

No need to worry. I am not RIPed, yet anyway.  This is just in case.  One must be prepared, you know.

Today's Welcome - 6/11/2017


Today's welcome goes out to the lovely and charming mother-daughter team of Coretta and Morgan from Baltimore, who ran into Donner and me at a Starbuck's on the Waterfront in DC this morning. It is because of the chance to meet good people like Coretta and Morgan that is one of the reasons I take my trips, or enjoy walking with my dogs on the streets each day at home. But Donner gets all the credit for attracting all these good people.   For their nice remarks about Donner, and for listening to the synopsis of the story of our OTR-8, they were both awarded a coveted OTR Patch.

Today's welcome


During the course of my trips, despite the solitude of driving eight hours a day and the isolation of many of our campsites, we meet many, many people. Some of them are encountered in the course of one of the many challenges we encounter, often daily, and are there to extend a hand to help us meet those challenges. Others are just part of the large group of friendly, good people who have nothing but polite comments to make about our journey or, more often than not, my dogs.  To help me remember those people and to thank them for their comments or help, I decided post “Today’s Welcome” comments to them on my blog, hoping that they can read them, a practice I intend to keep after the trips end.
