Rickshaw man on a mission

With his faithful mutt Roxy by his side, Stevens set out from his Oceanside, Calif., home Sept. 13, 2009, and headed to Miami, Fla., with one goal in mind: to share God's love along the way. Five years ago, Stevens lost Mary, his beloved wife of 31 years, to pancreatic cancer. [...] while I was on the pier, fishing, people thought I was homeless because I was going through the mourning phase. Ironically, his trip was cut short when he was hit in the back of the head by bottle thrown by some youngsters in a passing car. Stevens was injured and had to return home, but remained determined. In 2008, he and his dog Camouflage Cammy headed out with The Shangri-La once again, this time attempting to break a world record. [...] time's a charm Back in Oceanside, Stevens acquired Roxy, built a new rickshaw and prepared to hit the road again. Since late June, he's been staying in Sugar Land. Stevens carries clothes, a small camping stove, fishing supplies and the like on The Shangri-La; and, of course, Roxy. There's a large sign on the front of Stevens' rickshaw letting folks know he's on a world-record walk, and he sings gospel music along the way, many songs which he penned himself.
