“It is such a gift to
be able to travel, see different parts of the world, and write about it
so that others may share the experience. I seek out locally owned
businesses and odd little things to see because those are really why we
value and cherish a place. Why travel a hundred miles or more to visit
yet another McDonalds?
“I’ve been traveling
across America since I was big enough to hoist myself up to a car window
and watch the asphalt roll by. This is an amazing country—the diversity
of the landscape and the people are endlessly exciting. I have so many
incredible memories: a humid evening watching fireflies swarm like found
souls over a field where Civil War soldiers lost their lives; hundreds of
tank-like horseshoe crabs scrabbling over the rocks in the moonlight on a
Delaware beach; standing in Independence Hall in Philadelphia and knowing
that the wonderful freedoms and rights we appreciate were hammered out in
that very room.
“Exercise your freedom
to travel and make some memories of your own.”
—Joanne Miller
