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.

West Virginia (August 27-28)

I arrived in Capon Bridge, WV around 7:00. Liberty Gas Station was the rendezvous point with Kimber, and we proceeded to Anthony's Pizza to order takeout for the cabin. Kimber and I chatted while the pizza baked, then made the long and winding mountain trek (in cars, of course) up to the cabin. I fully enjoyed my cheesesteak pizza over various conversations with Kimber and Cathy. Later, Kimber stayed up with me as I took a long and laborious route on the information superhighway to book a hotel room in NY for the next night; I'm guessing the process took about 2 hours--don't ask.

I formally met the newest members to my family circle, Margaret and Kate, in the morning. We all enjoyed breakfast and various morning activities before heading down to the pond/beach/playground. It was a joyous morning of relaxation and play that I'm sure to remember for a very long time. Margaret and Kate are absolutely adorable, and I'm excited to know them! I stayed longer than anticipated, but it was still a very quick trip (and with no photos--so sorry). As playtime concluded and beach items were packed into cars in anticipation of lunch time, I bid my farewells and headed back to the highway en route to Gettysburg, PA.
