		<description><![CDATA[Day 26–July 29, 2009 (rest in Pittsburgh, 0.0 miles) Since I began my walk not a month ago I have climbed mountains and walked beside farm fields. I have met amazing and generous people and made lifelong friends.

		<description><![CDATA[Day 23–July 26 (Greensburg, PA-Irwin, PA, 8.1 miles) Loitering is not my idea of a good time. And I doubt most people enjoy loitering. But, when you are homeless, it is a way of life. Since I&#8217;ve begun this journey I&#8217;ve spent hours loitering. I&#8217;ve loitered at Panera, at Starbucks and McDonald&#8217;s. I&#8217;ve spent time [...]]]></description>
