Day two, three, four…
Since my last post, I have traveled to Montreal via bare trees, cold winds and then back to some fall colour. The ride into Montreal rolled me past the Museum where I saw…

Back On The Road…. Day One…
I’m back. On the road….. I left Prince Edward Island yesterday after…

Still on Prince Edward Island….
I am still in Prince Edward Island. PEI was my final destination East and I knew I’d spend awhile here. My mother and father needed a good lift so that’s what I’ve been doing. This time has been full of mixed emotions. Like some of the topography here, constant shifting dunes. I witness the parallels…

Road trip Out-takes… one
It’s hard to record everything that happens on a road trip. Especially if you’re blogging at the end of a long driving day. So. I thought some outtakes would be appropriate. These could last for awhile! Today’s published out-take happened in…

Day 15: Last day rolling to…. Confederation Bridge!
I’m here. I’m in Prince Edward Island. Holy moly. I did it. I arrived on the day I was hoping for. My birthday, August 21st. My goal was to reach my Dad and have a brandy toast. Well, it happened. We were ecstatic! And, have been talking and sharing stories non-stop. My last day on…

Day 14: Morning off, Montreal Traffic, le Cote Sud…
It’s amazing that in the 14 days I’ve been traveling I’ve only slept 3 nights, including tonight in Rivière-du-Loup, in a motel. I am blessed with beautiful, caring, generous, and loving friends. I’ve slept on the floor (on couch cushions), on a couple of couches, about 5 comfy beds and one….very hard one, tonight! I’m…

Day 12 into Day 13: Dawn, 5 lanes & back to the city…
Monday’s blog, Day 12, was written before the day was finito. Knowing I was intending on leaving before dawn yesterday morning (day 13), I packed up as much as I could before my friend Tom and I went off to Cambridge (not too far away) to meet our other friend, Dan. More hellos, hugs and…

Day 11 into Day 12… Buffooning & regrouping
I just reviewed my previous posts and realized I was very mixed up in my day numbers. They’ve been adjusted and all is correct now. I’m losing track of the time! And… where I am now? 🙂 Yesterday, day eleven was a special day as I was booked for a Buffoonery Workshop in Hamilton. Five…

Day 9 into Day 10… Obstacles & A Festival..
Day nine…. my roughest day thus far. But, it could have been rougher. I decided to take a short cut. Through the States. I could see it would cut off a lot of time. My friends in Sault Ste. Marie strongly encouraged me. And, I had my passport.

Day 7 into Day 8…. trucks, rocks, trees… repeat..
I’m being silly. But, isn’t that what this is about? Sometimes, anyway. Actually, as most of you know, a road trip provides much time for thinking, contemplation (same thing), assessing, life evaluation, goals, dreams, and where the next gas up and pee stop is, and should I get bad coffee or hang in for a…
