Today began year 4 of annual 2-month treks around the US and Canada. Last year Redsie (lifelong friend and ex-brother-in-law) and I rode to Alaska. That was clearly and by far the toughest.

This year's destination is New England and the Eastern Canadian Provinces. The first stop for the trip, Savannah. I expect to arrive in PA by Wednesday and be with Julian's and Angela's families through the weekend. Then it's off to Vermont, Quebec and Labrador before heading South to meet Faith in Portland, ME. We will spend 2 weeks in Maine, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia. After Faith heads back to Florida, my plan is to go North and East to St Johns, Nova Scotia. From there I expect to return through the rest of New England and to see relatives and friends in PA , WV and VA on the way back to Florida. See you in September!!
