On April 16, 2008, The Wagon Lady departed from Savannah on a quest to Atlanta. The journey was to take sixteen days and in fact took six weeks, five days finishing June 2, 2008 at 10:19 a.m. Her goal was to raise awareness on the issues surrounding child abuse and neglect but as the miles went by, she realized it was a journey symbolic of the every day life... survival. Now, after 250 plus miles of eventful encounters to include surviving being side swiped by a semi truck, The Wagon Lady has stories to tell that will help inspire you along your personal life journey. www.thewagonlady.webs.com
