Having time and money to travel has always been possible for me.

Take 1982, $75 cash, a touring bicycle, no tent, a small backpack cookstove, peddling from Philadelphia to Orlando. Also a three week trip.

Take 1980, Greyhound bus from York, PA to Moscow, ID. Carried my backpack and my Dad’s Army duffle bag. A one week bus ride. So many small town stops. That’s why it took so long.

Long ago i finally accepted that planning to workout after work didn’t work.

It was far too easy to find a ‘good reason’ to wait until tomorrow.
