…my brother Sky had sent us almost immediately in response to my latest blog post. I’m proud of all of you for setting and accomplishing the goals you’ve made for yourselves. No doubt this
journey around the world has offered you some of the greatest challenges of your lives, and you’ve all
continuously pushed passed them. Like Ammon said, it’s mostly mental attitude, and from what I gather,
you’ve all done an amazing job, especially considering the circumstances. I know that very cold and very
early mornings on an exhausted body can be discouraging and very unattractive.
Again, I wish I was with you. It would’ve been sweet if my 5 year enlistment in the Marine Corps was
completed prior to your trip. Next time I hope. Only 2 years left.
Stand tall,
Skylar” ***
