This blog is about Logan’s sixth-grade year: learning about his country, about skateboarding, and about putting dreams into action. We left New Hampshire in September 2009 and completed our journey in May 2010 in Washington DC.  Best. 6th grade. Ever. [CBS News story] [Fuel TV interview] [NHPR interview]

    I want to say that we truly enjoyed meeting Matt and Logan today in Gainesville at the Gainesville Skate Park. I think it is amazing what you are doing and what wonderful memories you and your family are making. I can’t wait to see what new adventures you get to experience. Take Care and if your ever back through Florida, please send us a line and you always have a place to stay in Gainesville.
    Take Care
    Sincerely
    Colleen,David, Donovan and Darian P.

    Saw you both today traveling to downtown, here in Seattle. I was able to look up your site while on the bus and so glad I got to see you in the bus tunnel to get a bracelet and support your trip – what a fantstic way to learn! I am very impressed and happy to support your journey in this small way. Safe travels and happy learning.
