This collection of poetry, prose and journal excerpts was composed during a fifteen year period that I was mostly nomadic.

And even when that change is thrust upon us, we suffer through it, only reluctantly traveling that new road. This is the story of a young family who set out to discover a new home in America. Jobless in the wake of 9/11, they cross North America six times in their quest, peripatetically wandering the country from Maine to Alaska to Baja and the southwest. Along the way they discover that home is something you take with you, and even if your...
