        Hey walk friends!

        I’m thinking about getting a walk themed tattoo and was wondering if anyone had Philly artists they particularly liked. Bonus points if the artist has a connection to the walk, the border, or the city!

          Oooooh are you going to beat me to it? I’ve been talking a good talk about getting the perimeter tattoo on my wrist for some time now, but still haven’t taken that leap.

          One of our walkers got the perimeter on her ankle though! I’ll ask her who did it.

          And I did see someone else who had it (with the lines of broad & market streets) on the back of their hand, so that they could say that they knew Philly like the back of their hand 😉

          Another pal has a delaware and schuylkill river / tributaries watershed on her shoulder; I’ll ask her if she can share who did that one too.

            PS maybe tattoos are the thing for multi-time Circumnavigators instead of more varied pins / swag? A perimeter outline for every circumnavigation? My 16 would be like a set of tree rings 🙂

            Maybe we could partner with a tattoo shop where you come in and fill in the segments as you walk them, so that folks would really easily be able to track which ones they’ve already done? Just kidding, probably easier to stick with a PDF coloring-book sheet to download and annotate.
