Getting Started - Walk #1

Cali and I are going to walk on every street in Corvallis. The idea came from hearing about people doing this in New York City and elsewhere. One of Martha's friends did it a few years ago in Corvallis. Here's her story.

If each walk is two or three miles, it should take about 65 walks to cover the 164 miles of streets in Corvallis. Doubling back in cul de sacs will add some miles. So 65 walks will probably grow to quite a few more. Friends who did this thought they walked about 250 total miles. We'll log all of the miles we walk on this project - including "doubling back" on cul de sacs. 

We started from home today. It was sunny and about 80F. We intended to go further but stopped when Cali overheated.
