He's currently moving left to right across your computer screen.

Years ago some friends and I decided to get sandwiches after work and ended up taking a ferry to Connecticut for them.

Did similar trips back when cars had no power assist or AC.

Albany to Wichita Falls and back several times.

Didn't miss what we didn't have.

I could visualize Woody's trip having been to those places.

Too bad the "Old Man" died.

The Vermont Welcome Center in Guilford is one of my two favorites in the country, the other being Florida's (because you're not in Georgia anymore, plus free orange juice!). If you're ever here, be sure to try the wooden rocking chairs. They are incredibly comfortable.

This is a cool little place. They have these things called Profilers. You stand on the brick marked with your height, close one eye and look up. It looks like the Old Man is still there.

In Lincoln, not far from the Notch, is a place called Indian Head. I think it looks more like an Indian Head than the Old Man looked like an old man.
