Your journey inspires me to look more closely into my own life, which has blindsided me. I don't know how I ended up where I am -- well, of course, it was because of decisions I made regarding the circumstances surrounding me, but I made so many of those decisions without thinking, without considering just who I am. I'm closer to the end of my life than the beginning, and I don't want to leave it without experiencing the who and why of me. I have a saying I put on my door - "go forth and have no fear" (from the X-Ambassadors' song Renegades) - and I have been trying to do just that, although I find myself screeching down into the depths of fear (where I have lived most of the time) too often. But after reading "Will's Red Coat" I'm hopeful that "...it's never too late to live again."Rohananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36795530.post-41702365051565242282017-07-17T09:42:19.376-04:002017-07-17T09:42:19.376-04:00Thank you for sharing your journey with us!Thank you for sharing your journey with us!Onesnaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02240914293572328565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36795530.post-91715809414046975612017-07-17T07:31:49.344-04:002017-07-17T07:31:49.344-04:00My husband and I talked the entire 5 hours back ho...My husband and I talked the entire 5 hours back home after leaving Stull's about how we are not taking advantage of the time we have here on earth. There will be a lot more traveling in our future and our next big trip is actually a leaf-peeping trip this fall in Vermont to visit a childhood friend that I haven't seen in about 40 years! We know it will be the first of many trips to areas we want to visit. We look forward to reading more about this adventure you have undertaken. - Kris PriceKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02919124664280023335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36795530.post-10043352835947286032017-07-17T00:52:01.932-04:002017-07-17T00:52:01.932-04:00Thank you, Tom and Samwise, for sharing your great...Thank you, Tom and Samwise, for sharing your great journey on the road!

They so miss their former busy lives and you make an unplanned life normal. Thank you for that... for me, as well.

I say this because, Michael and I have this same desire. I can't explain why, but we both just do. Something else we have in common...crowds and how we prefer not to be in one. I know a few times I replied to your posts over the last two months when I said one of the things I love is your adventurous spirit. You would come upon a road, path, trail...perhaps it wasn't even on a map, but you took the chance, the opportunity to explore it. I loved these specific times of your grand adventure. It was so exciting to see the photographs and learn about these out of the way places. And I absolutely love this sentence..."But all roads lead back home because home is wherever we are". Thanks again for taking us on your grand adventure, for sharing all you did, for all the spectacular photographs. It's been such a joy and brought a smile to my face each day. For that Tom, I am very grateful. And like you always say, "Onward, by all means".Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01040111681338038903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36795530.post-68649020980133657912017-07-16T19:33:54.758-04:002017-07-16T19:33:54.758-04:00Have loved following along...Have loved following along...Carol Casavanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17353489633160087197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36795530.post-72703869583539687682017-07-16T19:24:10.415-04:002017-07-16T19:24:10.415-04:00Thank you for taking me on a journey that circumst...Thank you for taking me on a journey that circumstance does not permit me to take myself.

This is the 2nd trip in my 41 years that I didn't wish for home the day before we were leaving (the first being my Alaskan cruise last year). I'm not sure if it's my age now, my 2nd marriage, or that my daughter is 9 (old enough to have been through the kid stuff). It's also my 2nd home that I've bought, acquired cheap enough to be comfortable but allow some room to have the means to travel. <br />I enjoyed reading your books, Tom. I always like to read about New England because I live here. Your books are kind of a coming-of-age manuscript, to me anyway. Making that life 2.0 decision, reflecting on who we are deep down as a person. I also have dogs, and the kindness that is portrayed in your writing has really hit home for me. It will be something to think about if/when I am put in a similar situation.<br />I am looking forward to reading about Samwise, of which I have no doubt you will write, especially of this trip. It will be another chapter of growing, learning, and getting older. I'm talking about you, of course, along with the dog. I know I'll pick up some tips for myself along the way. <br />Good luck in your travels. It's been nice following along.<br />Onward, by all means.<br />KAScrivineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07065235663901224720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36795530.post-6149374235727650962017-07-16T18:47:36.951-04:002017-07-16T18:47:36.951-04:00It has been a joyful journey.
