Update #53
2 months ago

Day 30, Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. WE MADE IT! It wasn't easy; the heat and mountains all the way down Baja did their best to do us in. But... WE MADE IT! 7,600 miles and nearly $37,000 to PolioPlus. We've decided to ship the car back to L.A., sparing us four days of night driving on (cooler) mountain roads with lots of critters to avoid: javelina, cows, horses, sheep and goats. So many wonderful folks met on this journey and fond memories made. Especially proud of the response to and support of Rotary's PolioPlus campaign. Thanks to all who have supported the cause. As Dr. Robert Scott has said and hoped: "....a short three years from now polio will be remembered '... only in the history books...'" History will have been made and you will have been a part of the conquest. The children of the world thank you.

Why I am fundraising for The Rotary Foundation
Our "Miss Vicky" will again be joining Rally the Globe for its 12,000 km (~7,600 mile) Alaska to Mexico Endurance Road Rally. Building on her success in the Peking to Paris rally of 2019, Miss Vicky, a 92 year old Model A Ford, will "go the distance" to prove that difficulty things are possible - even ridding the world of the polio virus. Join us for the event and help make history by contributing to the cause. Every penny raised goes directly to Rotary's PolioPlus program. A single penny per mile ($76.00 USD) is matched 2:1 by Gates Foundation. Help Rotary meet its $50 million dollar annual pledge to eliminate polio forever.
