Last weekend, one of our meetup members, Kelly Halldorson, walked 38 miles holding a Ron Paul sign to spread the Doctor's message of liberty. With her walk she was able to garner more newsprint press in NH than the campaign has gotten all season! She was featured in the Union Leader, Foster's, Foster's, the Portsmouth Herald, and Dover Community News. She also got some national press with Reason Magazine, and Free Market News. She is even inspiring people across the country to do a Walk for Paul! Kelly is truly an inspiration, to us all, just as is Dr Paul's message of freedom.

Her own accounting of the event:

This past Saturday I stepped out onto my front porch at 5:00 am. I was greeted by a independent videographer and a photographer from Foster's Daily Democrat. The videographer was there to document the walk, he followed me throughout the day and I'll be sure to post his finished video here. The photographer from Foster's was there to take pictures for a follow-up piece they were doing. This is the one thing, in regards to my walk, I really didn't think through. I had my picture taken over and over. If you know me you know I despise being photographed. Oh well, I tried to take it in stride.

I finally left my house at 5:30am. This first leg of the journey took just under two hours. I didn't have a sign, (someone had stolen it from my lawn a week prior) just my iPod and backpack full of CD's and literature. I made it to the Barrington Irving station at just after 7:00am. I was greeted by the same Foster's photographer, Jeff and my grandparents. I wasn't due into that stop until between 7:30-8:30am but I didn't want to wait around so started on my way shortly after getting there but as I was leaving a few supporters showed up and a Foster's reporter. So, I turned around and did a short interview, took a few pictures, borrowed a sign and then was on my way for real. I felt fantastic. No pain. Not the least bit tired. I had 7 miles down...only 31 left to go.
