Walk for Multiple Sclerosis in Coeur d'Alene


Last weekend we participated in our second annual Hein Family MS walk in Coeur D’Alene. Although this has been a family tradition for almost 10 years, this marks the second year Penny was brave enough to join the family chaos walk. Along with Buster and newcomers Scott and Miriam Brown, the team accomplished the 5-mile (with a few shortcuts) fundraising walk in freezing, blustering winds. The local walk raised over $30,000 so far. Penny was the most prepared for the walk, having completed the Seattle MS walk just a few weeks earlier with good friends Megan and Leslie.

After the walk the team headed back for a BBQ and a relaxing afternoon that included a few naps! Penny, Buster and I plan on making this an annual event and are hoping one year we actually get nice weather!
