Christie and Emily entered a photo contest! The contest is called “postcards from the edge”, so we entered a shot from Niagara Falls, the edge of the country. If you have a minute, please check it out and vote for our photo! Thank you!

  1. Love that picture!!

    We feel we are watching kin establish a record drive. Our mother was Alice Anderson of Portland Oregon, therefore obviously a distant cousin (very distant) going back perhaps to the 12th or 13th century when Ander had a son who became the first Anderson.

    Our father’s ancestors came to New York from Amsterdam with early Dutch traders in the early 1600’s. Consequently we may also be related to the Spyker crew. Small world - and exciting to see you come closer to California where many anxiously await your arrival. Best wishes to Babbs, Emily and crew. Amazing trip!!

    You deserve the “Silver Babbitt Award”

  6. Where has the last month gone?!?!?! I wish we were out there with you guys watching you come down to the ‘finish’ line. I can feel the excitement from ou there in the flatlands of Illinois. Tell Sally to take lots of pictures so we can see all the excitement and the relief that you made it all the way. Pass the hugs around for us to everyone who made the trip happen. We didn’t get to meet for long a few weeks ago, but you all made us feel like part of the family and part of the adventure. We’re so proud of ALL of you, including Babbs. God Bless and God Speed……:)

  7. Popped into Hornytoad, where the Niagara Falls photo you submitted to their contest was scoring 4.72 out of 5 at the time I logged in. Looks like you may win this yet, though you’re currently competing against 200-plus other images.
