Trailing The Sun 
You’re skipping the entire middle and upper U.S.! What is with that, FUR REEL?
There’s gotta be some cool things in……Nebraska……….Iowa……..Montana……………Oregon….
(Fields…….Corn……….Open space and 3 dollar houses…..THE OREGON TRAIL GAME’S HOMETOWN)
But really….what happened to all those places. Louisville in Kentucky is supposed to be like the 4th best city in the US or something
You’re actually going to ride in Florida? You must be some tough hombres. Good luck with that.
where will you be sleeping?
We will be tenting it most of the way! Should be awesome. Thank you for checking out the site!
Lol it would be funny swing someone tent in central park, NY
Hey Tay,
Don’t forget Rosie is in Florida, about one hour out of Tampa (by car) let me know if you want me to contact her…
Be careful!!!
Love,
Auntie Donna
Good luck! Happy sailing! Above all stay safe and healthy!!!!!!!
Love you,
Auntie Susie
If you need a place to stay in the Atlanta area, please speak up!!! I have a great bunch of Christian friends down there!!! 🙂
Hey guys! I got this site from my brother Tom Doran’s friend on facebook Bonnie Eaton. I am Tom Doran’s little brother Michael. I have traveled the United States for 35 years. Hitchhiking, cars, planes, busses,trains, you name it. Thankfully the Lord has kept me safe. I looked at your route and it looks like you’ll be following I-10 somewhat for a long way. I know just about all the Interstate highway system and more. If you need a little info on a place or two drop me a note. May God bless you on your journey!!!

WOW! Now, that is truly impressive. I hope to live a life of adventure such as that. Thanks for offering help, we will definitely be in contact. Can I snag your contact info?
Oh I just thought of something, if your going to Death Valley, let me know. I used to live in Indian Springs NV. I’ll hook you up with Pastor Glenn at the church and get you squared away!
We will indeed be heading through Death Valley and that sounds awesome. Thank you!
I wish there was a “like” button! Hahaha!
Sure you can always e-mail me at michaeldoran1@hotmail.com or I’m on Facebook at Mike Doran Woodstock, GA. My profile pic is Einstein right now just friend me or I’ll find you guys. I have to get a new cell phone. I’m staying at an extended stay hotel right now the # is 770- 799- 3061 ext # 224. I have to get more time on my cell. I have a pastor friend in Dothan, Alabama which may be on your way too it’s just north of Panama City. You guys let me know your locations as you can & I will follow you and give you what tips I can.
We heard of your trip from our Daughter (two of her children go to Sutton HS). We live in Savannah (outside the city proper). If you’re looking for an overnight in the area, let us know.
Hi Pat, thanks so much for reaching out to the boys… I just want to help make the connection…. Taylor, Pat is Samantha and Dan Fry’s grandmother. So, if you are looking for shelter in Savannah…it’s certainly available!
When the boys hit FL, let me or your Mom (I know your mom from high school) know have a college friend in Fort Myers and my parents are in Sarasota on the gulf side!! Overnight stay for sure.
This is so neat!! I love what God does!!
Making great progress. Hopefully the riding is getting a bit easier as you get used to the weight on the bikes and warming temperatures. So far you’ve been fortunate not to have had lousy weather.
— Stay Safe!
