Saturday evening an unusual sight was seen in the Elkhart area: five guys and a goat, hiking from Arizona to Chicago. The group spent the night camped out behind Talk of the Town in Elkhart, then on Sunday continued their journey. The group consists of Matt Gregory, Kyle Townsend, Blake Ferrell, Patrick (PJ) Fisher, Philip Aldrich and Wrigley, a 5-month-old Nigerian Dwarf billy goat. They are all Cub fans, and their mission is to crack the curse of the goat for the Cubs and raise donations for Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. To follow their journey, visit crackthecurse.com. Pictures by Eric Meiners   (Click on picture for larger image.)
