RV Adventure across America: Masked and Marvelous

Embark on a one-of-a-kind journey with Frank Barry as he navigates The Lincoln Highway in the midst of a global pandemic. This COVID-era trek takes us through countless states, providing a unique perspective on the physical and mental landscapes of America. As we ride along, the wisecrack 'All Come to Look for America' takes on new meaning, blending adventure with caution in a mask-wearing world.

As American presidents continue to advocate for space exploration 'back to the Moon and on to Mars,' questions arise about the concrete plans and timelines. With NASA and the European Space Agency at the helm, the future of space travel remains both promising and uncertain. Long-time space enthusiasts are left pondering the crucial points and considerations that shape the destiny of humanity's cosmic endeavors.

Witness a serendipitous encounter at the Fonda Theatre, where John C. Reilly mistakes Sierra Ferrell for a friend during a memorable performance. This whimsical moment captured by Kate Sadoff at the dairy farm/honky-tonk highlights the unexpected connections fostered through music and art. Next time you pass a busker on the street, remember the importance of kindness and the joy of shared experiences.

UCI President David Lappartient emphasizes the need for improved safety in competitive cycling, addressing the root causes of crashes. With a red and yellow card punishment system set to be introduced, a new era of accountability and rider behavior is on the horizon. It's time to shift focus from politics to practical solutions for a safer sporting environment.

Interesting Fact: Did you know that the Lincoln Highway was the first transcontinental highway in the United States, spanning from Times Square in New York City to Lincoln Park in San Francisco? It played a significant role in the development of American road infrastructure.

Fun Fact: Space missions to Mars may involve long-term habitation on the red planet, with plans for sustainable colonies being considered by space agencies across the globe. The dream of interplanetary living is closer than we think!
