The Savvy Tourist

Quote of the Day

"The scientific theory I like best is that the rings of Saturn are composed entirely of lost airline luggage."

- Mark Russell      
 

He who hesitates is not only lost, but miles from the next exit...

If only the truth be known...

Therein lies a tale....

...as only Al can tell it. A dear friend of mine is currently on his annual trek across the country in his RV with his 2 beloved traveling companions, Max and Merlin. Max and Merlin are Al's traveling companions by default. They get no say in the matter because they are dogs. They just smile and go along for the ride, without the foggiest notion what is in store for them. Al's journey, along with Max and Merlin, can be quite eventful and always fun to read about. The only thing better than reading Al's stories is actually hearing them. To fully appreciate his eloquent verbiage and sense of humor, travel over to his blog, The CafeMerlin and check out his new audio posts and his traveling dash cam.
