Donkey Walk - Tim and Rosie's Journal of Their Trek

Donkey Walk - Tim and Rosie's Journal of Their Trek

As we were heading south on Highway 97 en route to Crater Lake yesterday we saw a man with a donkey stopped by the side of the road speaking with someone. I mentioned to Denny that he looked like a prospector, thinking perhaps he was a rock-hound, but there was no place to pull over so we went on.

Heading north after our loop around the lake we spotted the gentleman again and Denny pulled off the road as much as he could and I asked the man if I could take his picture. He introduced himself as Tim and his donkey as Rosie and explained that they were walking to Texas. He gave me a tiny slip of paper printed with the name of a website that was a blog of his travels and mentioned they had stopped for a rest so I thanked him and let him go.

Who knows, perhaps we'll see Tim and Rosie again when we begin our migration south in the fall.
