The Pasadena (Calif.) Star-News caught up with Dennis Kinch, the man who’s walking Route 66 for the National Pain Foundation.
Here’s the money quote from him about his physical ailments:
“I’m blessed to have pain,” he said. “It’s made me a stronger person than before.”
Kinch also has a new entry in his Notes from the Road.
Kinch has only 25 miles to go before reaching the end of the Mother Road. If you want to greet him at the end of his trek, he’ll be at the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica from 9 a.m. to noon on Friday.
UPDATE: I just found a story from a newspaper in his hometown of Attleboro, Mass., about Kinch nearing the end of his trek.
