In conjunction with Dave's 2010 Bum Tour, The Time is Now Tour seeks participant hosts to become part of a documented "trail of accomplishments." Invite Dave to visit, and then it's time to take action! As you--and possibly your spouse, significant other, family member, or friend--set about your undertaking, I'll join along as either an observer or participant. All experiences will be captured in writing and collected for future publication. Some experiences will be captured in pictures and/or video, also for possible publication.

You've got something you've been wanting to do or try, right? Maybe it's something grand like bungee jumping, sky diving, or white water rafting. Maybe it's something a little less extreme like visiting a museum or hiking a trail. It's even possible that you've just been wanting to try out a new (or new-to-you) restaurant or cook a new dish at home. However grand the idea, Dave is saying the time is now!

If you would like to be a part of this fantastic trail of accomplishments, just contact me and include your idea and the location.

IMPORTANT NOTES: Dave's "The Time is Now" Tour will not be providing any funding toward your endeavor, but Dave will pay his own way as a participant wherever applicable. Hosting expectations are outlined in Dave's 2010 Bum Tour "note" on Facebook, or contact Dave directly for details.

Following the Tour

As dates and locations are added to the tour, they will be posted to this calendar. Blog posts will periodically chronicle tour stops and adventures. Go to August 2010 to see the current schedule.

Arkansas

If you prefer a video update, here's an unscripted road video:


Another quick update, but I will have time this evening with a good internet connection to post more with photos.

I'm in Arkansas now--arrived early this afternoon. The Jimmy Buffett concert on Thursday night was absolutely amazing! Friday the 13th was a major travel day, starting with a short trip back to Elyria (OH) for my camera and video camera. I hit Columbus (OH) during rush hour, Cincinnati (OH) at game time for the Reds--yes, more traffic--and hit a torrential thunderstorm just east of Louisville (KY). Otherwise, an uneventful travel day. I stayed the night in Hurricane Mills, TN which is the home of Loretta Lynn; I stayed at the Days Inn, which I cannot recommend to anyone.

I've been in Arkansas for a few hours, and I've already had a meal of fantastic--and long missed--Mexican cuisine from Casa Manana in Little Rock! I also visited Pinnacle Mountain, a first for me--I'll post pics later tonight.

By the way, I made a mistake choosing Speedway as my unofficial fuel sponsor for the tour--very tough to find in the south. Correction: impossible is the correct word. I'll have to choose another fuel sponsor for the south, but I'm not sure who else has reward cards. Oh well.

More soon...
