At fifty-five, the hours seem to be picking up speed and after blowing her retirement savings on a truck and camper, Michele sets out on a hundred-day odyssey across the United States. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHer family and friends think she's gone insane. After three days on the road, relentless mechanical breakdowns, creatively profane DC drivers, and watching her camper fishtail wildly in her rearview mirror, Michele begins to agree.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThree months and fifteen thousand miles later, Michele returns home. The lunatic pace of those first three days had transformed into a joyful experience as she ate strange food, met new people, and reveled in the freedom of the open road. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBack home, Michele's sensible inner voice insists it's time to re-enter the sane world and try to regain some financial security. Otherwise, she's going to be eating a steady diet of cat food come retirement. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eShould Michele return to the safety of IRA accounts, retirement saving, and health insurance, or throw caution to the wind and return to the open road? Her family says no. Michele isn't so sure.\u003c\/p\u003e Sometimes a little insanity is exactly what your life needs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michele Laforest Gray\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1492251593\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781492251590\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/16\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.46d","brand":"Michele Laforest Gray","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48458837098751,"sku":"9781492251590","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_73b3e23f-22b8-4dc7-88d8-a415dcd38135.jpg?v=1777406925","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/little-big-life-michele-laforest-gray-9781492251590","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
