Have you ever wished you could just hit the road with no particular plans? Come on along for a three month road trip in the old campervan. And to keep it interesting, a second story is woven into the book; as a naive young hitchhiker, I went solo coast to coast decades ago.
This irreverent continent-wide commentary starts on the west coast. Read about gangsters who drive their car out on the sand and into the sea to get away from the cops. On the plains you might end up in a thunderstorm and be transported to a campground right out of the Twilight Zone.
Meet a great lakes freighter pilot stranded at the Welland canal unable to get back on his ship. Stand under the thunderous roar and spray of Niagara falls. In the maritimes you can take stairs down 50 feet and walk on the ocean floor when the water goes out, but there are tides that can come in faster than you can get away.
Enjoy the flashbacks to 1970 when I smuggled dope across the US border, fought...
