Everyone is asking me what I’ve discovered about myself on this trip. There is no great moment of epiphany. That said, I haven’t been to the desert yet and put on my Doors album if you know what I mean, wink mushroom wink.
What driving for long periods and being alone gives you is time to think. The reason I took this trip is that I simply love cars and driving. So now I’m going to try and just do things that I love while being open to new adventures.
This morning I started to remember how my favorite thing as a child was my Saturday morning bowling league. I really loved it and looked forward to it all week. So this Saturday morning I went bowling. In St. Louis that’s not a real trick, Google maps lit up like a Christmas tree when I typed in bowling alley.
Now to find the world’s largest ball of twine and the perfect place to watch the Kentucky Derby.
