Now, at 51, another trip is on, but for a reason & cause. Even today I'm back to riding a bicycle to and from work. The process has begun to sell my home and all it's contents. I just purchased a new light weight bicycle for trip, cost more than some used cars I've bought in the past. Tons of planning to do yet. Maps to get, routing decisions, what to bring that would really be needed. This time I'll be starting from here in upstate NY instead and heading down the east coast to Florida and then turn west along the gulf coast.
I'll be stopping every now and then to see about any local work available to help keep the cash coming in. Made up a couple of signs for the trailer that say "for hire along trip".
What's the cause to promote? Us being dependent free of all foreign oil and and just about all crude oil within 10 years time max.
Stay tuned for the ideas and how can we do it.

Not cash that I know of yet, since I would prefer to work for what I will be needing as what I will have runs out.
That being said, if you know of anyone along the route I'll be taking that hires for day work, needs any odd jobs done, lawn mowing, painting, plumbing, minor electrical wiring and such, please let me know in the comments section or at mrbillinny@yahoo.com. Farm & field work is fine also.
If you have a safe place I can set up my tent for the night, that would be a big help also, since lodging along the way is going to be the largest expense.
Once I'm on the road, I won't have ready access to the internet, so any responses to emails and comments might be delayed a bit. I'm hoping the local libraries will have computers with access as do around here.
These are the known towns and cities I will be passing through, with more to be listed as the route develops, starting in PA.

Hey Bill, I heard you were heading down my way. Do you still do electrial wiring? We need some done. Good luck on your trip. Any pics of your trip going to be posted?
Kerry. Former customer, Paducah KY. Remember?
Hi Kerry. I do remember you all. Not sure if I will be passing close to your area as of yet. Trying to stay away from the areas that have too many tornadoes and such.
