Welcome

We welcome you to the Farnham Project blog. My name is James Kelly and I am the Farnham Project team leader and I am joined by team member Carl Burdick in writing this blog. We decide after about a year of talking about this idea that the best way approach this trip was to co-ordinate things with a blog. The basic idea is this - we want to recreate the remarkable journey of Russel Farnham starting in Astoria Oregon and following his path as far as St Petersburg Russia. It's our hope to incorporate this adventure into the celebrations of the 200 year anniversary of the founding of Astoria in several years.
