Welcome! Here we catalog and reflect on our journey to begin the rest of our lives! Find out where we are and see where we've been. Suggest places to go, questions to ask, get in contact to meet up with us and rock out!
This is an experiment! ... to see how profoundly a large network of weak connections can radically alter and enhance our journey! So share this website with LOTS of people to keep the experiment alive!
