The Beginning....

The Beginning....
When William Least Heat-Moon toured the country many years ago, his steed, if you will, was a van that he named Ghost Dancing. His journey of America was 13,000 miles. His book is Blue Highways, A Journey Into America. My steed will be a Subaru WRX (traded for an XV Crosstrek). My travels will be, what in the past were called, the blue highways of Virginia. Years ago, maps showed secondary roads in blue. Yes, the ones less traveled.

Drum Roll, Please! Yes, Craphead Award Number Three Goes to the Benningtons for Birthing With the Dolphins......

Not going to waste a lot of time on this. You've most likely seen it elsewhere. For those who haven't, they are in Hawaii and the Mrs. part of the couple will get in the water with dolphins when she has her baby. More information here.

Years ago, in another time, if you will, I worked with the mentally ill, many of whom were homeless and didn't work. I was always amazed how they could travel around, even from coast to coast...and, no, they didn't work. Yes, these folks are in Hawaii.... Amazing. 



From the Daily News....The Barringtons live a mobile life, traveling across the country in their car and relying on odd jobs or bartering to get by, and say they plan to keep it up when the baby arrives. Though they don't know the sex of their new addition, they've already chosen a name: Bodhi.
