OverViews for a Quarter Century

So this is all new to me. MyLifeOfTravel, not blogging, nor travelling. I have done the latter two for quite sometime. My family was always the nomadic type when it came to family vacations. We took the car, not the plane. I grew up in Rochest...

 

Eastside

Done. The final episode of my journey has ground to a halt and like the movie Titanic it's demise has dragged a bit before disappearing into a black abyss of potential atlantic darkness. Seen quite a bit on the east coast - New York, Boston, DC, Ph...

East Coast Blues

Ah, Washington! The capital of planet earth. The IMF, The World bank, The Federal Reserve, the Pentagon, and the White House. The iron triangle of power and money, the future target of terrorist attacks.... This was not really clear to me at the t...
