On The Road

Back roads
   Yesterday I went to the book store and bought "On the Road" by Jack Kerouac. I've never read it but it is one of those books that feels like everyone knows about. And given the subject matter, I feel like it is something I should finally read. Honestly, I can't recall the last time I go so into a book that I couldn't put it down and read the whole thing. Maybe something from Stephen King about 15 or 20 years ago. This feels like it will be one of those books. My only problem is I keep stopping to search Google maps to see if any of these places still exist. Most of them do not.
   And my wanderlust is kicking in even harder.
