The Journey Begins

I want to get a bunch of cool stuff on this page; a map of the route, pictures along the way, a link to get donations/sponsorship, journal entries and video diaries along the trip, and more things than I can think of right now.

The Story

Two brothers, Tod and Justin, who suffer from Choroideremia a degenerative eye disease, which can lead to complete and total blindness.

With the prospect of losing their vision entirely, Tod and Justin have decided there are so many people/places/things in this country that they would like to see.

Since Choroideremia starts with the peripheral vision, they have decided to start with the peripheral states of America. They are going to circumnavigate the contiguous United States, seeing the great sights that make America beautiful. They will be documenting the entire trip on film in the hopes of raising awareness of Choroideremia and other degenerative eye diseases. All donations will go towards trip costs and expenses, with all remaining proceeds going to the Choroideremia Research Foundation.

Big Thanks to our Backseat Blind Drivers
