Michigan couple Jennifer and Jonathan Riehl have visited all 3100 counties in the continental United States!

That Brazilian family is kind of like the George Foreman family. As for Jen and Tom, they more likely visited all the 3,044 counties of the continental US that aren’t the 64 Louisianan parishes (now they need to visit the 5 Hawaiian counties and 19 Alaskan boroughs).

Okay, I am baffled. How does naming all their children “Walter” honor Erotides, and why did he go along with this moronic plan? Honestly, some people should be prohibited from having children.
