Hitch50 Comes to a Finish

Remember Scotty and Fiddy? They started off about two months ago on a mission to hitchhike their way to the state capitals of all 50 states in 50 consecutive days. (Yes, even Alaska and Hawai'i.) Erik gave them some link love early on in their adventure and now that they've completed their fantastic voyage from state-to-state it's time to recap. On October 10, 2006 the two young men headed off into the cold, dark, unfriendly land we know as the United States... Okay, that's not true. They did head off on October 10, 2006 and I'm sure part of the whole thing was not only set up to score some free travel, but to show that there is a little kindness in the hearts of Americans everywhere for two men with extended thumbs. Now, whether or not they stuck out their thumbs or just prearranged every single ride, you'll have to find out on your own by visiting the Hitch50 site.

They did spectacular job blogging the whole shebang which includes photos and video. I kept tabs on the fellas by text messaging, hoping to give them a lift at some point in their journey, but they moved a lot faster than I imagined they would. Their mission was successfully completed the mission on November 28, 2006. Way to go guys!
