Hello there! Welcome back to the McCullough family blog, which has been very quiet lately due to the Avon Walk. Even though I only walk 13 miles and 15 miles (vs. 24 and 15 over the two days), it still requires a LOT of training (and sleep). The Walk was the last weekend in September and was even more amazing than usual since I could share with Alexandra.
Also, a huge thanks to all of you for your support. I raised an incredible $5,469, bringing my lifetime total to over $30,000!!!! I couldn’t have done it without your support.
We’ll be back to more Alexandra-exclusive cuteness soon. In the meantime, enjoy these pics from the Walk!

The team at the starting line. Yes, it’s still dark out.
We had incredible weather for the Walk. No fog. This is the view as we started out from Fort Mason.
After crossing the Golden Gate. We have *never* had such great weather for walking across the bridge!
