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.

Manistee: Day 1

This will be a short post--sorry. I'm in a tent next to a railroad track (at a campground), it's 1:30am, and I'm online using a wireless network. Very strange.

Today was basically a long drive from Elyria to Manistee, and fortunately uneventful. I'm visiting my good friends, Chris and Kari, who are up here for a week's vacation. After I set up my tent, we went to their rental house, chatted for awhile, and then had a fabulous dinner in town. Oh, and I purchased a folding chair for my campsite. This evening, we had a campfire outside of their house. It was all very pleasant!

My brother called me today, too. When he realized I was in northern Michigan, he was wondering if the sun would be setting. To my surprise, it has not really gotten darker than twilight. We were looking at reflections of trees on the water well past midnight--an interesting phenomenon.

I'll offer a better re-cap of the Manistee trip--with photos--later. Just wanted to keep everyone informed. Not sure what days I will have internet access between now and Monday night, so bear with me.
