LRWT in Savanna, Illinois — Photo by Lori Gum
The LRWT project reached its 1,000 milestone walked when I stepped into Roswell, New Mexico on April 14, 2010. The journey began in Madison, Wisconsin in the fall of 2009. Right now I am hunkered down in Sanderson, Texas – a place with a hometown appeal I was fortunate to run (sic!) into — “provisioning” supplies for the next journey in the near future.
A More Immediate Goal
While many of you have commented on how well the photography has appeared on this blog, I am working to secure a more professional-quality camera for true art’s sake.
I presently use a simple Canon PowerShot A420 4.0 pixel; I have an extensive background in digital layout and design and I KNOW how important it is to have the best possible images to work with!
If yourself or someone you know would like to offer such a camera at a good price or as a donation or by some other bargaining, please email me at littleredwagontrain@gmail.com.
Thanks! Jeff
Here’s how you can “walk along” with the LRWT Journey…
three simple ideas for you or someone you know to help out. Thanks in advance!
ONE
Numero Uno – Your comments here on the LRWT blog make it all the more valuable! At the end of each Post is a field where you can leave your Comment for other LRWT readers.
TWO
Money Is Evil – But money is necessary. I think of the LRWT project as my job, and can be an important record of our time. If you believe in this project too, you can help fund a small portion yourself or perhaps get a little LRWT group together to help out. Who knows where this’ll all end up! You can donate securely through PayPal:
Or, you can mail dollars and cents to:
Little Red Wagon Train
P.O. Box 260162
Madison, WI 53726
Please make payable to Jeff Alexander/Little Red Wagon Train. Evil money is deposited at the UW Credit Union in Madison, Wisconsin.
THREE
A Simple Little Wish List
- Food - If you see a dude pulling a friggin’ little red wagon please please give him fooooood! On the journey I’m an eating machine.
- Rest – If you see me out there pulling the wagon, a great gift is always a good, safe place, like a back yard, you can offer for me to set up the tent for the night.
- Video Camera It would be great to YouTube this project in style! Any ol’ video digital camera you have lying around will probably do!
Donations can be sent to:

Thank you! Jeff
If your trip brings you through Houston, Texas I would be honored to give you a place to lay your head for a few nights. I am an acquaintance of your brother, Wyn. He can vouch for me… I’m not TOO crazy.
I wish you the very best and I think this is a wonderful idea. I will be following closely and sending donations as I can.
