Update from Senor Tidwell

Hello Everyone!

I've made Arizona. I'm praying for good weather and better internet so I can get my journal entries to the blog. They are currently trapped in "Sending" limbo. I'm afraid it's out of my hands for the time being. I want to thank everyone who helped get me across California. I understand I've crossed some 450 miles and I know I didn't do this alone. It would hardly have been possible without your support either in the form of hospitality and shelter or your notes and texts.

I expect it will take me three weeks to cross Arizona if it's a straightforward walk and I don't meet anyone or the weather takes a bad turn, but I'd like to linger if I can meet people who live in the state. If you know anyone who lives along my route (See below), let me know! Texting me is turning out to be the most reliable form of communication as I can't pull my emails without internet which is frustratingly difficult to connect to.

I hope everyone is doing well!

Best,
Sam
