the other day i received a nice personalized package from Mr. Dawson which contained about 70+ polaroids from our journey down the coast. I completely forgot about some of the experiences we had on this adventure.... the story of the bull (a christian comic we found in a bathroom floor about a prisoner who find jesus after he kills a bunch of doods because their girlfriends wouldn't smuggle heroin), the wild beavers (our gang with kids from oregon.... get it) the mountain man rendezvous (which is where you bring all the things you have found while on your adventure and trade them with others hosted by larry), and the low tech lace ups(the name larry came up with for us who didn't have a bunch of electronics or fancy clip-less shoes)........
and on that note here are a few polaroids that i have scanned so far from the huge pile... I am only at day 6 out of 32 riding, which puts us at the Oregon Boarder and the town of Astoria...... a very famous town for several reasons but if you don't know, I'm not here to school you....... but you can get an idea of the amazing eye opening and motivating experience this was. as much as i hate being in the house recovering right now, i think it is good to finally get this book made....
