« A long walk for Yorkshire Day, for Minden Day, and for the White Rose chosen for an August 1st ceremony | Main | Why, I repeat, would anyone want to walk 250 miles with a rose bush?.... For a day like today. »

Journey's end, quest completed - a white rose planted as a lasting memorial to the link between Yorkshire Day and Minden Day

Roger and Chris sent this short message today:

We have planted the rose this morning at a simple but moving ceremony at the memorial [to the Battle of Minden].

Congratulations to them on the successful completion of their 250 mile journey, and the vision that prompted it.
