A bucket list

Since high school, I’ve wanted to take a road trip cross country. Dead Head friends may have inspired it, or maybe it was Depeche Mode’s 101 Documentary or perhaps Jack Kerouac. In any case, thirty years later, I think this is precisely the right thing to do after months of COVID quarantine.

Last week the company announced a mandatory, but comparatively brief, furlough, creating an opportunity to take time away from the office and triggering my wanderlust.

Hopefully, you will find this blog interesting, but its primary purpose is to chronicle what should be a three-week drive from Virginia to California and back.
