A Little Thumper Sunset Therapy

New Compelling Evidence – Cavemen Rode Motorcycles
Choppers, in fact: Scratched into the concrete of a Fort Hancock bunker, this is the work of primitive men. Cavemen, perhaps. Someone clearly took great care to share their art with the world. And...
Space, The Final Frontier – These are the Voyages of the Fuzzship Tigerprise

I finally spotted one of the 666 routes. This one was in Virginia: I have this other photo of the route sign that I wasn’t originally going to post. I kinda sorta realized that...

Day 5: Stung on the Back of the Dragon
When Kenny and I rolled away from Backbone Rock, we hooked a right in the town of Damascus, Virginia and followed route 58 into the mountains. There were several times throughout the 9 days...
Check One Off The To Do List: Backbone Rock
Though I had jotted Backbone Rock down on my list of things to see when we left home, sometimes the wind takes you elsewhere. In the days and miles that had already passed it...
