AUSTIN, Texas — A month-long journey from Seattle, Washington to Texas is quite a road trip.
Group reflected on fallen heroes
People took 2-mile walk
Events organized around Memorial Day
But for Smitty Searles and his fellow volunteers, it’s one taken in stride.
“We are honored to be in Austin, Texas at Zilker Park,” said Searles.
Searles, a paramedic from Wisconsin, is part of Carry the Load.
