Here is a great read
« on: August 12, 2009, 06:42:31 PM »
Here's a great journal written by Neil Peart recently about his motorcycle trip to Yellowstone National park. God! I felt like I was there!!

He also throws in interesting tidbits of trivia, history and viewpoints in his journals. In this one, he talks a lot about writing Manhattan Project. Great stuff!

He also explains in detail the American landscape while he's riding . Pretty interesting...

Enjoy.  http://www.neilpeart.net/news/index.html

Huh, I've read all his other books, but didn't realize he had his own website with writings.

Neat, I'm gonna have to surf around there a bit.

Thanks for that.

That is really great stuff..... need to spend time to reread it slowly so that I can really appreciate it like it deserves.
