In assembling the skeleton of this adventure these five words align themselves vertically, building a strong backbone to build on. Sinewy adjetives and tissue-lined descriptions eventually envelop this backbone, putting it on the back burner, out of sight but holding all the weight, keeping form. A 12,000 Mile Road Odyssey. A complete loop around the America.
We began in Las Vegas on June 5th, 2008 as a clean, sane group of four: My long time travel companion Derek, our friend and drummer Tyler, my younger brother Lance, and myself. I finished the loop alone forty-five days later on July 20th, dirty and permanently changed.
The following is a record of this change.
