106 miles to Chicago. I've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and I'm wearing sunglasses.

Hi gang. So I'm setting off tomorrow on the busking tour I've mentioned on other threads. Thanks, Mudcatters, for your invitations and advice; it's a great help.

I'll post updates in this thread when I meet Mudcatters, and when I have an adventure I feel would be of interest to folk geeks.

I'll be travelling by bus and staying in youth hostels for the most part. The first two months will be in Canada; going to the Maritimes, then doubling back and going out west. I then plan to cross the border and see if I can make it from Seattle to Washington DC in six months (with, perhaps, a few little detours from the most direct route).

The main things will be busking and visiting people. I also hope to find some opportunities for: touristing (Grand Canyon and redwoods are priorities), jamming, songwriting, visiting at least ONE Springfield, rescuing beautiful monsters from ravenous princesses, seducing farmers' daughters, talking to Americans, etc.

At this point I think I've contacted every Mudcatter who suggested a meeting or slumber party, asking how to contact you and making an estimate of the timing and probability of contact. But if I've overlooked anybody, please do let me know.

With love, Marion
