Dear Blog Followers,
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT! We really appreciated the messages, comments and knowledge that you were reading.
(We know about you lurkers too – and it made us feel really cool to have so many people invested in our lives. It was like high school again)
A week has gone by since our road trip ended. Helen flew back in 6 hours what took us 39ish days to cross.
Where are the sisters now? Well, Maryanne has passed her CA driver’s test and is now a resident. Helen moved into a new abode. Maryanne went friend shopping at the Green Festival in SF. Helen has traveled to NJ, PA, DE, ML, VI, TN and NC – and now is in Flowery Branch, Georgia working.
Pretty much, our lives continue to be radical adventures.
We are unsure about what to do with this blog. Should we update it from time to time when our lives are EXTREMELY exciting? Should we allow it to sit, as a tribute to our first adventure across the entire USA? We are open to your suggestions!
Here is a map summary of our trip, it only includes dots for places we stayed. And obviously we didn’t travel straight lines through the country or swim Lake Michigan or Erie.
LOTS OF LOVE.
The Sisterhood of Helen and Maryanne

Dear Maryanne,
Believe it or not, your blog was spotted by a real-life AmeriHealth New Jersey representative: me! I can no longer find the blog page in which you outlined your interactions with AmeriHealth, so I'm leaving a note here. Sorry you haven't gotten your issue resolved, but I'd be happy to help if you'll contact me at brian.litten@amerihealth.com. I don't know what your specific policy covers, but at least we can figure that out together.
Sincerely,
Brian Litten
Vice President, Strategic & External Affairs

Hi, Maryanne,
I'm an old acquaintence whom you haven't heard from in a while, so I hope this contact doesn't feel like stalking. If I were a stalker, I'd have found this blog sooner than 3 months after the end of your trip! I enjoyed looking through it, though some of the videos wouldn't play. One that DID play included "mountain lion safety" -- that was hilarious. You two have not lost touch with your inner child. The entire trip sounds like it was a marvelous adventure.
You and I knew each other in 2006 or so, in a chat room. You stopped participating in that chat and we never knew if it was because your interests changed or you got busy or what, but everyone who was there when you were remembers you fondly. It's good to know what you've been up to.
Congratulations on your graduation, and good luck with your studies and other pursuits on the West Coast.
Best wishes,
Michael

Hi, Maryanne,
In yesterday's post I mentioned that some videos wouldn't play. Today every one I've tried has played fine, so it was probably a temporary problem (and probably MY problem) yesterday. I do NOT want it to seem like I'm saying anything needs fixing. As far as I can tell, it doesn't. I just watched Helen rolling down the sand dune. It looked easier in The Princess Bride. Great stuff.
Best wishes,
Michael
