How We Got Started

Back in December of 2004, I came across an article in The New Yorker about a guy named Caleb Smith who systematically walked every street on the island of Manhattan. I kept thinking about this, and on a New Year's Day hayride I announced to all and sundry my New Year's Resolution: to walk every paved mile of Catron County.

Not everybody was impressed. One person, however, came over and said "Sounds like a neat idea. Would you like some company?" We started walking the next day.

Here's a link to Caleb's fun and interesting website about his New York City Walk:http://www.newyorkcitywalk.com
