I'm still in the #TotalEclipse afterglow, trying to put into words what I saw and felt. I fear that I won't be able too, that the only thing to say is to make sure that you see for yourself in 2024, but I will try. Time to saddle up and ride 2300 miles home. Thanks to everyone for following. It's great to get feedback; it helps me shape my story. Look for it in an upcoming issue of #RoadRUNNER magazine. Special thanks to @honda_powersports_us for use of the #AfricaTwin. It's been perfect for chasing the sun. #motoadventure #motorcycletravel #amwriting #amriding

The #Scranton Lace Company building was built in 1927. It was closed when textiles left the country. The building stands as a reminder of another time. Within one foot of this broken window I was overwhelmed with cold stench of mold as it wafted outward. Any thoughts of entering went away quickly.

Turkey Hill is having a sale on #coal. This is anthracite, the good stuff that fueled the #IndustrialRevolution. #PA for #RoadRUNNERmagazine. #AmRiding (at Ashland, Pennsylvania)

Trying to travel light on this trip because I'm carrying everything in a backpack. For #camera gear I have two #Lumix #GX85 cameras, two vario zoom #lenses, and three primes - 12mm, 20mm, and 8mm. I also have a small tripod and ND filters. Altogether, the camera gear is about 6 pounds in my 20 pound pack. #amriding @roadrunner_magazine #motoadventure

#GeekOut. This #Anker device charges my laptop (USB-C) my phone, my gps, and my cameras (#Panasonic GX85 charges via USB). I don't have to bring anything else to charge. I'm carrying everything in a 20# backpack so every ounce saved is worth it. #motoadventure #amriding #amwriting @roadrunner_magazine

Was it Robert Frost that said, "The road less travelled might get you a ticket from the authorities"? A day I won't soon forget with the @indianmotorcycles #Scout60 #motorcycle for @roadrunner_magazine. #motoadventure #AmWriting #amriding #roadlesstraveled. P.S. I talked my way out and had a good conversation.

As we march towards the future, we build on the bones of the past. #PA has many bones to explore, and a #motorcycle is the perfect vehicle for this mission. #amwriting #amriding with @roadrunner_magazine
