Two New Jersey Men Plan 6000 Mile Walking Tour
Marcus Barone and Martin Coda of Orange set out from Mt Joy to walk to San Francisco. They started a month ago with $1.15, carry a first class camera, and keep a diary with post office stamps. They will travel via Gettysburg and Florida, sleeping in barns or hotels, never using any conveyance, and rely on kindly strangers as they traverse the nation.
