RollingForAutism Stats

Hi Friends,

Just a brief update; its late and while a few weeks ago, my late night stamina was that of a college student... Now, I can barely stay awake past eleven after a day of skating.

Some stories to come tomorrow morning. In the meantime, here are some interesting stats to date regarding our efforts.

240- The number of miles skated.

80 - The weight of the pitbull in pounds that chased us for nearly 500 yards.

34- Emails to RollingForAutism today. Things are heating up.

27- The number of media appearances we've had a mere one week into our trip.
This means two things; first, our media team is doing a great job.
Second, and more importantly, we are succeeding in acheiving our
goal of working towards promoting autism awareness.

16- The number of strokes Orto took playing two holes on the golf course today.
A par three, followed by a par four.

8-We saw eight aligators during our South Carolina golf cart gator hunt this
evening. Details to follow.

4- The number of blisters on Orto's right foot.

2- We've eaten two home cooked meals since we've left. Thank you Diana and
Jennifer.

1- Minutes before I fall asleep.

Check in tomorrow.

Bests,
Dan T.

If you haven't passed Fayetteville, you are welcomed to crash at our house. Our two year old son is autistic and we are very proud. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you are doing. I wanted to let you know that all your pain and aches is really appreciated and respected.
