Road Trips : US Tour 1997
8800 miles. 29 states. 2 countries. 5 weeks. This was some trip!
On 2 September 1997, yer humble host left on a very long journey around the country. The object was to see the USA, via the old roads as much as possible, and to meet interesting people. Accommodations were provided in large part by Planet SOMA readers and other friends. Updates were transmitted from the road. And now, the pictures are being added. You're invited along for the ride, but be forewarned: I break for drive-ins, sleazy motels, cute boys, etc...
Start here and take the tour sequentially from day one.
