Through thirty-five years and one man’s stories from a life on the road, The Campfire Chronicles takes you into the world of a dedicated long-distance rider with all the perils, predicaments, humor, and revelations of a life lived out under the sky—on two wheels. Come out and ride the long roads toward new places and new people, and experience that revealing moment when you first understand that there is much more to the story than the images coming at your windshield. The real tale is what is going on behind your eyes and how you are transformed by the experience—when you finally understand that whatever objective you may reach, the road itself is still the reason you came. No matter where you thought you were going or when you started, this was always your destination. Your course was always set toward this moment in time. The road calls out to you—and you answer. Looking through the eyes of one man’s adventures during a lifetime on the road, you’ll discover that you are also riding to a special place within—a place of magic that you didn’t even know existed, where time goes away, and the road ahead becomes your only destination.
