Following the Yellow Line

A 75 year-old grandfather sets out on his motorcycle to see America up-close. Selling his home and storing his belongings, he begins a 50,000 mile journey through America's maze of hamlets, villages, towns and cities looking for the pulse of its people and beauty of its vast and remarkable landscape. The book had its beginning as email letters to relatives and friends describing his journey, a journey filled with a joyful spirit as he followed the yellow line.

I spent 30 years as a news-photographer, working for New Jersey papers and a number of years as a freelance writer/photographer. I was married for 41 years until my wife's death almost eight years ago. I have three daughters and five grandchildren.

During the cold winter months I reluctantly leave the road for a bit of rest and sunshine in Southern Florida.
