Welcome To The Show!

I'm setting up this little blog to give those who are curious a little window into what's going on, where I'm at and what I'm up to. For those of you who don't know; on Wednesday, August 13th, My dear friend Joe and I left Los Angeles and embarked on a great adventure. We've decided to drive around the United States. We dont know where all we're going and we don't know when we'll be back. We've both decided to turn off our phones, clear our minds and keep our eyes on the road ahead.
If you're reading this, chances are you're one of my closest friends and I care very much about you. With that said; I don't want to be bothered while I'm gone. I don't want to call or be called. I don't want to email or write or check in or just call to say "Hey". I want to go. I want set out and keep going and run & run & run til' I'm completely out of breath. You guys know me. You know I'll be back; and when I return there will be hugs and stories and lots of catching up to do. But until then, I'm just gone. For most purposes, we don't exist during this time. We're lost, we're alone, we're drifting, floating, meandering, trekking and in our own round about ways looking for something we've never known. If I'm diligent about it, this blog ought to reflect what it is we find and maybe, just maybe, what things we leave behind - out there in the whatever. I'm doing this for a lot of reasons: so many in fact that i'm taken back whenever someone asks me, "why are you gonna do THAT?"? All I can ever think to say is "Why wouldn't I?"

I'm envious. I've always wanted to.

And I'm thrilled I got to spend some time with you along the way. Be safe.
