Greetings from the road!
According to original tour plan, I should have already passed through Baltimore by now. Well… things have turned out a bit differently.
Here’s a run-down of day one:
Our first stop: Durham. We had a couple of tasks to complete.
1) Meet with rockstar magician superhuman Michael Casey. He had a book to give us, and our task is to deliver it to David Slade of the American Princes in Little Rock, Arkansas.
We hung out in Starbucks for a bit, caught up on life, talked about awesome books/movies/music, and shot some photos, before we went on our way. We are thinking about setting up a Michael Casey Day Parade in Little Rock in his honor. I’ll let you know how that pans out.
2) Eat popsicles with Flywheel Design, the masterminds behind Okaygreat.com.
We discussed some collaboration ideas, and came up with some great ones. Look for us on OkayGreat.com this week!
Also – Watch this fabulous stop-motion of Me + the Flywheel crew eating Locopops and playing with puppies. Tim made it and it’s awesome.

So from there we were supposed to go to Baltimore. Slight problem – as we were about to leave, Colossus called and said that their van broke down in Massachusetts and they were not going to make it to Baltimore.
That complicates things.
After some thought, we decided to do something fun – drive to the Atlantic Ocean. This way, the tour will be 100% from coast-to-coast, and we can steal fun things from the east-side coast and place them on the west-side coast.
From here we’ll decide where to go next. We have a few places in mind… all completely and totally different and far from each other. But for now, we’re going to play in the ocean and see what adventures we can get into out here in coastal bumfuck. We’ll keep you posted.
BTW, the real place to read about our phototour is on our phototour website: www.welldonetour.com. You’ll find more stories and photos there!
