Walking Across America (with a Mule!)

Posted by Alex in Animal, Pictures, Travel & Places on September 11, 2007 at 2:46 pm


Neatorama reader Rich B, who is driving across the US on a Great American Roadtrip (I’m so jealous), ran across Bud and Patricia Kenny and their mule Della in Kent, Connecticut.

Turns out, the Kennys are on a tour themselves - except they’re WALKING the entire way!

On June 22, 2001 Bud and Patricia Kenny with their mule Della left Hot Springs, Arkansas to tour the world on foot. They figure it will take them 15 to 20 years to complete this journey. Bud and Patricia were both 53 when they embarked on this adventure. Della was seven..

Link - Thanks Rich B.!

PS. I find it so neat that Rich has been sending me regular updates on his roadtrip that I’ve put all of these posts under its own category: Great American Roadtrip

    another repost but at least there is a consensus on the part of posters about what is neat :)

    Feel sorry for the mule. These two should get a job

    Saw them in MY HOME TOWN outside my favorite watering hole earlier this summer.

    Like a 19th century wagon train …. but with paved roads … and supermarkets … and motels along the way.
