Andra Watkins talks about walking the Natchez Trace in her new book Not Without My Father
Wed, Jan. 14, 6:30 pm
Andra Watkins will be talking about her new book Not Without My Father: one woman’s 444-mile walk of the Natchez Trace. Reminiscent of A Walk in the Woods(by Bill Bryson), Andra asked for volunteers to walk the Natchez Trace with her. No one took her up on the adventure of a lifetime. She finally convinced her 80-year-old father to walk with her, since she needed someone to go with her. But he had issues: he took his CPAP machine with him and he had other health problems. But he had a car and gas. She also hoped to reconnect with her father after many years. They walked from March 1, 2014 to April 3, 2014, fifteen miles a day. Six days a week, with one rest day per week. This is her account of this 444 mile walk.
