Well soon the travel blog will begin again as I take off on another great adventure. This time its down the coast on historic highway 101. With my drum in one hand and my anthology of beat poetry in the other I’m going to take off for sunny California. I’m looking forward to trying out the bohemian lifestyle for a little while, surfing couches, experiencing nature, and generally bumming around. This is really the beginning of a summer of travel and personal exploration. In order to preserve a flexible schedule to accommodate a trip to California and a trip to Guatemala, I was forced to put both of my jobs on a temporary and possibly permanent hiatus. It was with mixed feelings that I gave up the life of the employed. Especially in this economy with lots of people desperately seeking work it seemed rather silly to give up work for unknown adventures. But I have been told that life benefits those who take risks and I’m sure that most of us do not look back on our lives and say in our heads, “man, I wish I worked more!” So here’s to owning your own time, and making of it what you will.
Before I once again delve back into gonzo travel writing I want to insert two entries here about the work world. One about the joys of catering and one about the challenges of coaching younguns. So sit back, relax, sip on a cold one, and enjoy.
