Cleveland, OH

I’m not sure I’ve ever felt older and more feeble than I do right now. I’ve just arrived back to my house in Cleveland, Ohio slightly more than 48 hours after I left Los Angeles. It’s been a whirlwind couple of days shooting across this vast and open country, packed with terrible food options, too much caffeine, late nights, and early mornings. Health officials say eighteen hours in the saddle isn’t advisable, and it’s definitely not reasonable to do it two days in a row, but I’m built different. I do all of my best thinking when I’m left alone with my thoughts, and that only really happens when I’m at the wheel.
