I apologize to anyone not appearing in this thank you list.  It is incomplete, particularly around the Colorado and Kansas border.  Sadly, my notes and journals are scattered as I am traveling often and have little chance to organize them until my journey is over.  Please contact Tracie Snitker, my publicist at tracie@reverbinc.com, with your name, address (as I would like to write to all who have helped me), and phone number, and I will make sure you get posted on the site.  Thank you!  And again, I am sorry for missing some names.  I mean no disrespect, as every family that has helped me has ensured the trips survival.  You are all the most important people on earth to me. 

Sincerely,

Matt
