I travel a little bit in my own country.

Crash the Lou

Crash The Lou, an event I had been looking forward to for a long time, had finally arrived. Stephen and Kevin came to Madison from St. Louis back in July for our couch crash, and they really talked up St. Louis. They did a good job, too: eight people from Madison drove to The Lou… Read More: Crash the Lou »

Back in Dayton

I made the trek back to Dayton, mainly to help Dr. Turk with his website, but we also had time to stop at a few other places.

The entire beach seemed to be in private hands, and tall bushes obstructed our view of… Read More: Return to Airportland »
