Day- 1. I am a retired fire fighter. 32 years. My big brother,also a firefighter. He is named Greg. He just retired from a different city as a fire captain. He had worked on a few other places, but in total, he had 43 years of service. We have decided to take the Great American Road Trip. Starting in Spokane, we will drive to San Francisco, then to Sacramento and start at the beginning of US Highway 50. Sacramento to Maryland. Then we will pick a different road to return to Spokane. We leave Saturday, the 30th from Spokane, returning by April 22nd. I will attempt to document this trip, the America that presents itself to us and the people along the way. I will try to post a little bit each day along the way. I might tweet as well.
If any of you live along this route, let us know and we might have a drink or a meal with you along the way. I leave early AM tomorrow from Austin arriving in Spokane at 11. Then we are off to Seattle to visit another brother there, and Sunday off to S.F. If we can run into you along the way, we would love to chat.
