Some Honor Henry David Thoreau in Unique Way

Thoreau has long been a source of inspiration for many people, including myself.

And as it turns out, some people decided to honor him in an unusual manner recently, by taking a canoe trip of over two weeks, following Thoreau's own exact route, in honor of his having published "The Maine Woods", in which Thoreau wrote about his experiences during that trip, in particular.

Here is the link to the article about this story:
