Driving Home

After more than 40,000 miles across the US, Canada, and Mexico over nearly six months, the author relocated to his first choice of "cool cities". Along the way he wrote Driving Home and took over 3,000 photographs, visiting over 400 cities, parks, and attractions. The result is an adventure log, an honest look at his life, and a look at the challenges and lessons of the journey. The open writing experience changed the author's nonfiction style, which was continued in the Dynamism books in Philosophy and Science, and the Intersections concept album.
