Come with me on the road!

Some of you already know that I travel all the time. Therefore, when I am on the road I always have 'road trip' projects. My project for the last couple of years was to do mall photos. My goal is to have at least one mall photo from every state/province in North America. It did not matter if the photo was with Santa, the Easter Bunny, or from a baby portrait studio or Glamour shots - I would just grab a group of friends and drag them to the mall with me. If you have checked out my Myspace profile then you have seen that I have posted some of the mall photos there. (I have not found the time to scan them all in and post every one of them - but I am going to do it, one day.) If you have not seen a sample of my mall photos - the Myspace link is in the column to your right.

Since I am on the road all the time, I get the chance to hang out with people some would consider famous. People like Chuck D, Alicia Silverstone, etc but anytime people ask me about my travels I end up telling them about stories of the people I have met on my travels. No, the not stories of the 'famous' people I met and hung out with but the best stories of random people that I meet, at a bar, at a truck stop getting gas, at the hotel, and everywhere in between.

This gave me an idea for a new road trip project. I am going to start taking photos with the people I meet and post them here from every state, city, town that I travel. Some photos will have stories others will be of just the people. I do not know how this will play out but I am sure it will be great.

As soon as I have my travel plans set up I will post them on this blog so if you want to meet up and hang out or just want to have your photo posted - let me know and we will make this the best road trip project ever!

If I have already met you on the road and you have photos of us, please send them to me and we will start this project with a blast from the past.

We will kick it off with this photo of David and me. (I am the one in the black hoodie)

PS - thanks to everyone who has sent me a message since I have started this blog. - Its only been a couple weeks since I started this but all your comments/messages have been great. I am happy you are enjoying reading this blog. I hope that this road trip project will give a little back to this wonderful community we are building here.

PSS - A HUGE thanks to Jennifer for making me this awesome light switch for my horror theater.
