This really was being on my last leg. Tires all worn out or leaking air, out of food and clean clothes, out of money, and nothing but miles of desert between me and the end of Road Trip: 2024.

Shadowing The Sierras
A lot can happen in a week when you're on the road. This time, the end came. The end to this chapter at least. I'm technically "off the road" for the winter, arriving near Bisbee, Arizona last night. My most recent post had me not even in California yet. The only thing to do is … Continue reading Shadowing The Sierras
Days Gone
Central Oregon is likely to always remain connected in my mind to a video game for Playstation called Days Gone. That's because it was created by Bend Studios (located in Bend, Oregon) and uses actual locations in Oregon for the game map. Moreover, the main character in the game is a biker riding around a … Continue reading Days Gone
Snapshot 2024: Images From The Road
I'm getting ready to enter California on my run south, the usual mission as fall works its way down the Northern Hemisphere. As I was looking at routes it reminded me of how varied the landscape is in America's most populous state. From the Great Redwoods to the Mojave desert, from the snowy Donner Pass … Continue reading Snapshot 2024: Images From The Road
Back In The US and Heading South
Crossing back into the US on the final leg of my journey. Still 2,000 miles to go, so plenty more to see and reflect on. #jkroams
Through the Storm and Over the Line
The final Canadian leg of this year's journey had trees attacking, power failures, fires, and yet a serenity instead of calamity. Stay calm and carry on: Road Trip 2024 continues...
Ups And Downs And Run Arounds
Here on the border with the US I am taking some time to look back and forward. There are still a little over 2,000 miles between here and my likely home base for the winter. There are still stop offs of places and things to see, some people to visit, and a large chunk of … Continue reading Ups And Downs And Run Arounds
A Cycle For Suffering
"The historical cycle seems to be: From bondage to spiritual faith; from spiritual faith to courage; from courage to liberty; from liberty to abundance; from abundance to selfishness; from selfishness to apathy; from apathy to dependency; and from dependency back to bondage once more."
End of The Island Adventure
Yes, I'm finally off Vancouver Island, poking around British Columbia as the first leaves start to turn yellow. I look back at this year's trip and can't really make sense of it. My plans totally changed, multiple times, and yet I did still have a goal that I accomplished. In the wider context though -- … Continue reading End of The Island Adventure
Trippin’ Around Vancouver Island
I've really lost track of time. How did September get here so quick? I can't tell if I'm behind schedule or not, because I had no plan after seeing the Mars waterbomber land. I knew I'd explore Vancouver Island after that of course, but I had only vague plans and no timeline. I took the … Continue reading Trippin’ Around Vancouver Island
