melissa Glad you are back. No, that's an understatement. Greatly relieved, would be more like it. Well, maybe it's more like now I can come out of shock. Well...maybe that's all a little too dramatic. Suffice it to say, I'm glad you went and I'm glad you're back. It's all good.

Melissa I never thought I'd be living in a lighthouse.

Mike Rudeen Sent you an e-mail a few days ago, but apparently that's not the way to communicate on this magic system in your world. I'm just a simple caveman, after all. Great to see photos of John, the Good Guy; Kenneth; and David, none of whom have I seen since the Hoover administration. I'm following your blog but still catching up on the photos, and remembering a couple of rambles we went on in the dim, primordial past. Be well, travel safely and come back to us cowboys. Adios!

Melissa I love the pictures and the music. Also your blog entries are a great recap. Neat to see Graceland. Ithaca looks very quaint. We do have a beautiful country. Don't forget on your way home to keep up the travel log. Easy to forget in your focus towards New Mexico, but you will be glad to have your trip captured for posterity on this site. It's really cool. Great way to record your trip and memories. Have a great retreat this week.

Bob I love your blog. I am trying to trace your trip on the map. It doesn't say the exact cities you have been in, like Denton and Memphis. What's with the double back from Pennsylvania to Kentucky? Do you plan to come through Houston? It would be great to have you stay a day or so with me. Cuz

Sherie Thanks for including me in your visionquest. I am with you in spirit and some day may do something similar. How is Lee now and has he learned anything about himself or the world? Sounds like you have learned lots. Look forward to seeing you upon your return. Always IN JOY!

Melissa I love the map. Too bad it doesn't leave a trail so we can see the route you've come.

melissa The question is, who are you today, and who will you be tomorrow? Sometimes the farther we travel away from home, the closer we get to home. Your travels are for all men, for all women, for all relationships for me and for us. Courage, my friend. Watery knees are a part of it. Chester say's "thanks" for calling. He was glad to talk with you.

melissa Remember the four winds don't blow backwards. They do however, come full circle and make their return.

Melissa Tell Elvis I said "hi"

Liz Great website! The trip sounds like it off to a great start, be safe and have fun!

melissa Hi: Sorry to have missed your calls. Chester says hi. Talk soon.

mollie Good morning Lee, Looks like you lived in some mighty fine digs when you were little. I met your bro like I'm thinking maybe 8 or 9 years ago. I did not know that people could grow taller at the age he is!#$%&*(_+?? We are good here and it's getting much cooler :) I'm working all the time and love it for now.....you know what for now means. Keep safe............Happy Trails to you.

Allegra keep on truckin! http://www.zubeworld.com/crumbmuseum/truckin.html
