The Preposterous Project
No cover charge! Dancing girls! Open All Night!
Too much time behind a desk. Too much time with techmology. Too much time dreaming of other places. Too much time surfing the Internets looking at photos of places that inspire. Too much time wanting to be psyched. So how is there not enough time? Mr. Earle's reply: “This is the best time of the day, the dawn, the final cleansing breath unsullied yet by acrid fumes or death’s cacophony, the rank refuse of unchained ambition.”
After spending too much time doing the aforementioned, he realized he was a dull boy. He changed his mind, he changed his course. This blog is an account of his travels around the world -- or as far as he can get until the money runs out. Take heed: there are nimbler tongues, ignorant people, well-deserved rewards and excuses. They say there is not enough time, second guessing, more battles, more followers. Just don’t say you tried when you didn’t.
Now, brace yourself for impact.
There will be more time in the white stuff. More time riding the water mountains. More time on the sharp end of the rope. More time on the wheels. More time as a hobo. More time peak bagging. More fresh fish. More raw vegetables. More fresh air. More time as a pirate. More gazpacho. More time in the desert. More time.
It will inspire. It will show you no mercy. Like a sound you hear, it will grab your ear. It will sooth, nourish and hydrate. And, it’s open all night. It's a preposterous project.
I hope you enjoy the reading and the photos. Let me know what you think. And don't forget to subscribe.
