Day 95 - The glorious Pacific Coastal Highway - America in 100 Days
http://americain100days.weebly.com/home/day-95-the-glorious-pacific-coastal-highway
America in 100 Days. Day 95 - The glorious Pacific Coastal Highway. It has occurred to me in the past that we might have some cosmic force following us across the country, something that uncannily puts us in the perfect place at the perfect time. It reared its head back in Boston. When the Yankees just happened to be visiting Fenway on the night of our visit. Likewise, our swing through Denver. And took a curious look at the list. The guys behind the bar were happy to have a conversation about the house ...

Filling the Gap - America in 100 Days
http://americain100days.weebly.com/home/filling-the-gap
America in 100 Days. So its been awhile since the last post but if you’re still out there checking in on us, and feeling curious, this is what we’ve been up to. The job search intensified as the communal funding dried out but we were successful in completing task two: acquire gainful employment. I scored a job first as a teller with Chase Bank, Joey found a job in purchasing at a VOIP company from which he later quit over a moral conflict, and Tom found a job as a server at Pastini Pastaria downtown.

Day 96 – Full Circle in Northern California - America in 100 Days
http://americain100days.weebly.com/home/day-96-full-circle-in-northern-california
America in 100 Days. Day 96 – Full Circle in Northern California. We woke in a Motel 6 and got ready for another day seeing some of our most incredible views since the Grand Canyon, and by far the most scenic ocean views of the trip. We passed a little-bit-nicer-than-hole-in-the-wall place called Amigas Burritos, and after a bit of a delayed reaction, Tom and I decided to circle around and pick up some lunch. I had the Enchiladas. It took us about an hour to get to the park entrance. We realized that our...

Day 98 - To Portland - America in 100 Days
http://americain100days.weebly.com/home/day-98-to-portland
America in 100 Days. Day 98 - To Portland. The menu, I thought, went a little overboard. While it was nice to see some visual representations of their menu, it didn't help the fact that everything looked pretty much identical to my untrained eye. And frankly, many items were nearly identical, varying by as little as a single ingredient from item to item. I don't think it will come as a surprise to many of you when I tell you our first stop. A quick visit to BeerAdvocate. Joey and I found seats at the bar...

America in 100 Days. Day 94 - Napa Valley and Oregon Pinot. If everyone doesn’t mind, I am going to break the “fourth wall” of blogging past events. Today, I am writing about the day Tom and I shared in Napa Valley, the wine capital of America. As I write this, Tom, Sarah, and I are currently enjoying a day in Oregon wine country in real time. Right now we are driving towards a bunch of wineries on a wine trail. In Napa, Tom and I started our day off with Jack in the Box burgers. The man was very talkati...

America in 100 Days. Yanks vs. Sox at Fenway. After polishing off Marion’s last three or four beers and getting ready, it was off to Fenway for what might be called the “quintessential American sport experience.” (I called it that in the office before leaving Merrill Lynch and got laughed at for a good couple of hours. Can you tell I’m not a sports guy? Enter your email address:. Email us at info@americain100days.com.

Day 70 - 1976 in Denver - America in 100 Days
http://americain100days.weebly.com/2/post/2009/09/day-70-1976-in-denver.html
America in 100 Days. Day 70 - 1976 in Denver. Upon arriving in Denver after Fort Collins, we'd left ourselves little time or energy to go out and see this bustling city. and we were starving. A trip to Enzo's End. Took care of that, which might have been a shorter visit had we not noticed the drinks on the menu. We hit our hotel, we hit the pillows and we were up in time for lunch the next day. But we're motivated people, we are. There are a few areas of the country that are especially renowned for t...

Day 97 - Delicious Oregon beer - America in 100 Days
http://americain100days.weebly.com/home/day-97-delicious-oregon-beer
America in 100 Days. Day 97 - Delicious Oregon beer. Our first morning in Oregon was fairly indicative of what the future months would often bear for us in terms of weather. The sky was cloudy, the rain threatened all day and never really turned into anything. We thought it'd be fun to be-bop over to the University of Oregon. The campus is beautiful, however, and very large, so we took a little time to walk around some of the unpaved areas and shoot some photos. It makes sense when you think about it....

Spacey Needle, Seattle - America in 100 Days

America in 100 Days. Spacey Needle, Seattle. Saturday morning we packed up the car with our stuff and our dog and rolled out to finish up day 99. First things first after the long drive to the city, we checked into our dog friendly room at the Seattle Pacific Hotel then it was out to explore. We hopped in line and waited- not a terribly long time- until we got to the top. It was everything you would expect out of being very high up in the air on a large structure. It was windy, looking over the e...On ou...
