Because many of you asked how we are getting the mileage with three of us, here's an attempt to explain how we're doing it:
1 We drive to where we stopped walking the previous day and drop off Walker#1.
2. Then we drive 8 miles down the road, and Walker# 2 gets out and starts walking while the Driver waits for Walker # 1 to get to the car.
3. Driver and Walker 1 drive down to find Walker 2. At this point we have walked about 16 miles
4. The Driver gets out and walks 4 miles while Walker 1 drives 8 miles and drops off Walker 2. Walker 1 then drives back 4 miles to wait for Driver. When she arrives, Walker 1 walks the 4 remaining miles and Driver drives to where Walker 2 was dropped.
5. Driver and Walker 1 drive down to find Walker 2.
So Walker 1 does about 12 miles, Walker 2 at least 15 and Driver around 4 miles
If you're still confused, try mapping it out on a table using utensils or something to represent the three of us.
Sounds a little like the prealgebra problem mackenzie was working on last night- but the answer was x= 8 years to intersect so thankful your journey is shorter!
ReplyDeleteProud of you all and keep logging those miles - but walk together if you have any doubts of safety, please:)
HI Ho: The grannies are at it again. Will be reading your blog faithfully and hoping all goes as well as the first half of your journey. Stay cool---and snag yourself a cute Texas cowboy or two to share your margaritas with!
ReplyDeleteThinking of you out there in the sagebrush! Carry on!

Hi, gang.
ReplyDeleteLooks like your having a great time.
By the way, the cabs on top of the huge wing turbines are as big as 40 ft. Trailers. Each propeller is about 60 ft long. Love the sound also.
Have fun.
