The Great River (and Hearst) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781329457010)

Back and forth across the Mississippi past 2,000 miles of corn. Into Quebec as far North the road goes. Then Hearst. There are no left turns. That is the wilderness. 4570.3 miles of travel. 15 states. 2 providences. Some dirt roads, stuffed wolves, moose and local cafes. The best looking hostess in the world. A simulated gun fight on Main Street at 12:00 AM with live bullets (while Bob sleeps). Getting lost. Faced down by a deer. Wild ride on Lake Superior. Unidentified feces. The fifth big trip since 2010 -since the wives died. Getting ready. Bob makes reservations; maps routes, makes spreadsheets, does maps, prepares the truck, makes his stuff list. I assemble more maps, start a blog, take a first pass on my stuff list. We leave at 7:00 Sunday morning 8/24. My 75th birthday is 8/25 Thursday. We are gone.
