Chasing Amy for Houston

Donation protected
Next weekend, when I attempt to cross the Strait of San Juan de Fuca from Washington to Canada as part of my Chasing Amy journey, a feat that will traverse 10.5 miles in 50 degree water, I would like to raise funds for the Coalition for the Homeless of Houston. Please contribute today so I can carry your support, and warm thoughts, throughout my swim.

Amy Hiland was a competitive Marathon Swimmer from Long Beach, California active in the late 1950's who learned to swim in her late 20s and within five years had completed some of the worlds most challenging swims in the world. Affectionately known as the “swimming housewife” Amy swam without fear in the most treacherous and unforgiving waters known to (wo)man. On July 1st, I began 'Chasing Amy' and following Amy Hiland's swims. I swam from across the Puget Sound in July.
