HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- With some trips, it's not so much the destination but the journey that's important.
What started as a canoe trip down the Ohio River to raise cancer awareness turned into a different sort of trip for Kim Cornell of Pittsburgh. She started her trip in Pittsburgh on Aug. 31, and hopes to finish at Cairo, Ill., where the Ohio and Mississippi rivers meet. She hopes to finish the trip by the end of October.
For much more about Cornell’s journey, click on the video link above.

I would like to take a canoe trip down the Ohio River and maybe part of the Mississippi River. I am disable and would like to do it while I can.

Stop hatin' Canoe King! I was there cheering him on when he rounded the corner at the tip of South Africa. I understand his plans include a thunderous canoe assault on the Straits of Gibraltar... or maybe the Guyandotte -- so watch out!!

I had the good fortune to meet Kim and spend a few days with her here at our marina. She's doing something she loves and for a great cause - the love of her family. She's one of the most down to earth people I've ever met, kind, thoughtful and living her life! She's an inspiration, truly.
