Breast Cancer 3 Day Walk

I just met with a friend of mine, Tracy Kudrna, Breast Cancer Survivor, 60 Mile Walk Survivor! Yep, she did it, the whole darn thing. A whole 3 days of walking 60 miles. Pretty darn impressive if you ask me. I don't think I could do it. What an inspiration all the folks out there are when participating in this event.

Now I'm rooting for another friend from Virginia. Maureen Proulx and her team of 4 are "doing" the walk next weekend in Washington DC. Maureen is a new friend I have made through my Etsy store. I helped her with her Fundraiser in June at a local winery in Virginia (www.barreloak.com), by donating some of my Pink Breast Cancer Martini & Wine glasses. They sold for big bucks! Last night I just finished her order for four more customized wine glasses for her team. I know she's going to be FILLING those glasses with wine when she's done with 60 miles. It'll be a good painkiller for all those blisters and aches and pains, but heck it'll be worth it when you consider the cause.

And to all you others out there who are walking the walking, and have already walked the walk, a big congratulations!
