Each Path is Worth Exploring
November, 2022
It would be a mistake to think that a trail in the Redwoods leads to just another big tree. Each majestic giant is awe-inspiring, and the “community” it’s part of is a forest like no other.
Likewise, it would be folly to assume that what America means to one person will be the same as to what it means for another person. It’s one simple question, but with so many distinct pathways of interpretation.
In this month’s blog, we listen as a couple paths cross each other in an unexpected way. Each Path is Worth Exploring
Cheers,
Bob and Julia

Are We There Yet?
On a recent trip, we stopped for the night in Casey, Illinois, which is right by I70. We camped in the town’s park, which was wonderful. Casey bills itself as holding the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest pitchfork, rocking chair, golf tee, mailbox… well you get the idea. Any stop in this picturesque farming community would surely include a look-see at a few of these super-sized items. Alas, we didn’t stop to experience any. Not even a curious drive by to view the over-sized Dutch wooden shoes. We had come down with a rather unpleasant condition and the clock was ticking.

If you haven’t felt the pioneer spirit of the West before you hit Sheridan, you certainly will as you drive into downtown with the Bighorns in the distance.
