MICHAEL AND BROOKE California (USA) dreaming.  This the big day when Michael and Brooke are leaving for their epic trip around the U.S.A., California first.  They’ve got the right equipment.  I am reminded of a 1964 trip from Yuba City to the tip of Baja California.  I’ll go today into the garage to get slides I took on that trip.  Gary and I are old men now, but the memory is fresh and Michael’s and Brooke’s trip is a good reminder that everybody has a little madness inside…and some of it lasts even into old age.  I am eager to see the pictures that photographer Michael finds along the way.  Wow!  Life is good!

Michael's stuff... I left the scene before the actual fitting into the camper and the truck the things Michael is taking along.  I didn't ask where Brooke's "things" are riding.
