The yacht’s twin motors roared to life. The food was aboard, the gear was aboard, and all hands were aboard.

When I’ve got to take a walk through hard times, I think of the guy with no legs!

Have you ever had an Edith Day?

4,300 miles, sixteen days, thirteen different beds, lugging overnight bags in and out of the car, back roads, interstate highways, stop and go traffic, local diners, 1055 photographs, sitting in the sun, walking in the sun, driving in the sun, coffee stops, bathroom stops,  washing the car, talking with vendors, talking with new friends, talking with each other, XM Radio, iPod playlists, and sucking exhaust fumes.

You might be surprised who would call himself “one of the loneliest people in the world.”

Do you remember the first time you went solo on a bicycle? I sure do!  I thought my mom was holding on to my bike.  Imagine my surprise when I glanced back only to discover my human training wheels had fallen off.
