Northampton, MA to Conway, NH — staying warm
/5 Comments/in North America, Travelogue, USA /by allanThe blustery breeze blew the cover off my motorcycle as I loosened its tension cord.

The bad news is, there is no UPS early morning delivery in Lee Vining. According to the locals, the UPS truck arrives late afternoon, sometimes after 5pm. We’ll be waiting in Lee Vining all day long […]
