For a college student (of sorts) stuck in Brunswick, Maine, the imagery of life on the road was thrilling, and I vowed to seek it out one day. Some 42 years later, I still find myself fascinated with what comes next; just up that way, around the next corner and through the alley. And so it goes. Onward, ever onward.
