Road Trips


My mother used to say of me, "You've got the wanderlust." She thought that was a bad thing. But I've always been a little possessed of the sojourner's spirit. I like the road and the people I meet along the way. I like finding a new way into an old town and the shops along the way. The food is often surprising and like none other. New scenery is a soul feeder. I like setting up a lawn chair on a hill and reading until the sun goes down and knowing that the moment alone belonged to me. I like the road.


I hope to see new friends and old and taste and smell and renew and believe. Here's a few of the haunts where you can find me in the coming months:
