![]() a photo essay by Jim Norton The following document is not really a story. Though it has a beginning, a middle, and a definite end, there are no real themes. The characters are somewhat ill-defined. And many of the photos are crappy. But I think you'll enjoy the journey, nonetheless. Along the way, you can watch Jon get harassed by a small dog. Marvel at Ari's ability to fall asleep. Encounter strange new people like Heather, Lavina, and The Tow Truck Guy. Learn to laugh and love with Eric Wittmershaus. And explore San Francisco with Kathy. We start, of course, in Iowa. IOWA AND THE OPEN ROAD THE KANSAS OF YOUR SWEET LITTLE MYTH TAKE DOWN, BREAK DOWN WE'RE BUSTED!

Thanks for checkin' it out. PLUR, Jim |
