Clarkston, WA Beer and popcorn – does it get any better than that??? Hint: No, it does not. This place is not new to me and did not disappoint. New this run was a pepper beer (think Jalapeño) and a barleywine. As always, their beer is solid. I appreciate good beer and they have it….

Radio Silence
You noticed, huh? It got a little quiet up in this web site. I got quiet. Honestly, I had neither the time or capacity to write. Honestly, I am extremely flattered that you noticed. Seriously, flattered. Soon I will post about my experience and take a deeper dive into what I learned. I got off…
Status and Information
I thought it time for a review of the realities of my living situation, my unemployed and homeless self, and of life on the road thus far. These observations are mine and mine alone, and only based on my experiences. I continue to learn, to adjust, and to fully accept and engage with the pilgrimage…

Kamiak Butte, WA
Palouse, Washington This little gem lived right in my (previous) back yard! A common hiking and picnic spot and a mere 15 minute drive from Pullman. This is the first time I camped here. Your $15 gets you a shady and secluded spot, water, pit toilet, garbage service, and easy drives or bike ride to…
Paying Your Way
I just watched the van-camping couple next door leave. They came in last night, after dark, and are now gone. To them, probably early, but it is 10:00 in the morning and I have lived half a life already. They have stayed here before, in the same spot. They know the drill. These last two…
Immersion Brewing
Bend, Oregon Nice little place with very new and shiny looking equipment. I enjoyed the visual appeal of all the copper kettles and grain bins. The bonus was a “brew it yourself” area in back where a nice young man worked with you, or you and your friends, to choose from their menu and brew…
