Day 347 – On the road again!
After spending 6 months and two weeks in Austin I am finally back on the road again. It was much easier leaving New York City, but at last I am on the road again. I’ve made a few changes to my set-up this time around in anticipation of Texas Hill Country. I swapped out my…

Start date postponed until April 14th
I didn’t mean it as a joke, but April 1st has come and gone and I’m still happily in Austin. I decided to stick around for a bit longer to enjoy the city in nice weather, tweak my bicycle set-up and spend more time with the nice people I’ve met here. I figure two weeks…

The Journey Begins Again on April 1st
After spending 174 days in Austin I will be getting back on my bicycle to continue my journey to Los Angeles. I am looking forward to the drier air of the South West and the beautiful red, orange and yellows of the dessert landscape. Of course I am also very much looking forward to all…

2000-2015 Abe, the best cat ever!
On May 29th of 2004 I welcomed into my home an adorable little white cat with a splash of brown on his head and what looked like a pair of brown pants on his hind legs. He quickly ran under my futon and as I lay on the floor looking at him I could not…

Austin – I get my cat and tell you about the TV show I am working on
True statement – I’m better about writing a blog when I am actively traversing the countryside as opposed to working a day job and returning home to the same place each night. But there is a lot to write about being in Austin so let’s get cracking. I went to NYC three weeks ago to pick-up…

Day 152 – Austin, TX
Today was a big day. I started out in Giddings this morning with my eyes trained on Austin no matter the hills or scorching temperate along the way. I wanted to be there. I stopped for lunch in Bastrop and got my first salad in a couple of weeks along with garlic knots and copious amounts…

Day 150 – Navasota, TX
I am two days from Austin and I found out that I will be starting a video project this coming Monday through at least the first week in December. All I need to do now is sort out housing and take care of a few other administrative life things and I’ll be happily off the road…

Day 147 Kountze, TX
I made it into Texas yesterday and I’m glad to be out of Louisiana for the moment. I liked being in New Orleans and Baton Rouge and the people I met in other small places along the way, but the roads were mostly crap and the oil stuff bummed me out. I left my glasses on…
