The travel in Canada, as I envisioned it, in 17 days, might have seemed crazy, but instead it went well and I saw without even running, everything I set my mind to. For many, the same trip would take months; from several places I had read that one must choose one coast or the other.…

In this article I cite some examples of mistaken fellow travelers, touring southern Italy. In August 2020 with what I renamed the lady of the woods we went on a road trip. Why we got this nice nickname I tell in this article. We had also brought along our marbles and bucket, but I didn’t…
