bucks an hour in Everett. Last April he "quit badly," and started
planning his trip to visit friends in Los Angeles. He took half of his
savings and bought a bike, "the best bike he could afford." afetr
waiting two weeks for the weather to clear up he took a ferry to
Bremerton and started cycling south--even though the weather didn't
clear up. That was three weeks ago. He said he could only travel 25
miles a day, that he had been 50 pounds over weight but was slimming
down quick. He slept on a swimming blowup matress--his third since he
started, has a tiny thin sleeping bag and slept in a plastic orange
tube tent. He aquired the couch cushion from an abandoned house after
he lost his pillow to a homeless guy. He was making a movie but his
camera broke. He writes and all of his writing is on his laptop which
broke. Yet he is just so darn happy and excited to be journeying.
