An Odyssey Through Covid America

Free ePub

Hello All, It's been a busy couple of months. Four or five now? What month is it? Anyway, I finished one of my projects and it is now available on Amazon. The ePub is available free for the last five days of Mental Health Awareness Month, now through the 31st. I...

That’s a Wrap!

That’s a Wrap!

...and that is a sucky title for the final column. Toes in the sand? The end of the beginning? Across 50 states? How do you you wrap up 40,000 miles through 50 states and 110 columns over five months? Anything I write will seem anti climatic to me. But these are all...

Hiking to Papakolea

Hiking to Papakolea

It was tough figuring out which picture to use as the "featured image." Papakolea Beach is my favorite place. Ever. I think it is the uniqueness of it. There are only four green sand beaches in the world and one is right next to South Point on the Big Island. (The...

The Circuit

The Circuit

And around we go. I wasn't planning on doing it today. The weather on the Big Island can be hit or miss believe it or not. It really is like a microcosm of the US. Depending on where I am on the island, and what elevation, I can go from 60-80 degrees. On the dry side...

State #50

State #50

Well, close to a year after I first expected to be here, and after 5 months, 49 states and about 32,000 miles, I finally made it back to the Big Island of Hawai'i. A journey through 50 states of Covid America has come to a close. I am going to cheat a little bit here....
