My extended adventure is about to begin.

In the next few weeks I will set out to discover America. I have traveled a lot in my career, but always by air. Many times I have looked down at America – particularly the Mississippi River and the high plains to the west – intrigued by the many contours, shapes and colors of the land. I wondered what it was like on the ground of the desolate places. Now I will find out.

My plan of travel is a Ford F-150, pulling an Airstream trailer; following the back roads of this beautiful country!

I don’t intend to write a travelog – just a few comments on things I see and things I think about as I wander.

So follow along if you’re interested.
