[northband]

I read about Chris back in '94 or so and was moved. I sold everything I had and decided to head out into the Colorado wilderness.

However, while working and saving for my trip I saw Phish and ended up going on Phish tour '95 instead.

Whether you head into the wilderness or follow your favorite band - IMO life on the road is a great building block for life.

There's hardly a period that goes by where I don't somehow think about my time spent on the road.

(...and I still see Phish every year ;-))
