On a Wander...

I like to Wander. It's one of my favorite things to do. Just a motorcycle, some money for gas, a sleeping bag and no pending plans for at least two days. Typically I point the bike in a southwestern direction. Ohio is 40 minutes away and her roads are smooth and empty. It's a good starting State. Nothing clears the mind like a golden ribbon of road during magic hour - that time just before dusk when the sky goes Rothko. You can find whatever your looking for out there on the road - it just takes an open mind and an open heart - listening to your instincts will help too. Stick to the oldest roads you can find, eat in an indigenous manner and never say no to anything. The wind is always a little warmer, the drinks a little colder and the sleeps a little deeper out there on a Wander.
