Route 50 Update

Topic: Route 50 - 2003

Tonight I put what creative energies I have remaining after a long day into chipping away at finishing our Route 50 travelogue: Day 13 (6/10) - Denver to Garden City, Kansas. This was a day of sensory overload, so it’s a good story with lots of pictures.

Route 50 Redux

Topic: Route 50 - 2003

Believe it or not, I’m finally finishing up the Route 50 web pages! I’ve added entries for days 4 and 5 - take a look. I’m amazed at how well I remember everything. I usually can’t go out the front door without having to come back in two or three times to retrieve things I’m supposed to take with me, but I remember that trip like it was yesterday.

For the first time in a long, long time, I feel I have my “voice” again. Ever since grad school, doing any significant amount of writing has been an unpleasant, sometimes painful task. Now it feels fun again. I think all those PoliSci papers I had to write at Georgetown did some damage that I’m only now recovering from!
