JRD3DU~<br> On the right, Jay (see previous post). On the left, a young 19 year old guy we met, "crazier" than us. Started walking on the road in Vancouver to head back to Montreal. Thousands of kms in, he bought some rollerblades and poles and went along gliding on the shoulder listening to beats in a quasi-dancing fashion. He slept in the ditch in his clothes with no tent.

Dave PhotographyKelly-Moore Paint building in Sunnyvale, now vacant and boarded up as the business has moved to Texas. But you can still see the outline of the iconic “Parking In Back” sign that used to grace that window. Google Street View still has the original.
