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.

More accurately, “No matter where you go, there you JOLLY WELL are.” Between His Lordship and Lenny it’s amazing we’ve made it thus far.
