His first night on the road, alone in a Super 8 motel, he makes three pro/con lists: one for staying in his job; one for staying in his relationship; and one for staying in Philadelphia. This book-length essay is a log of the author's life on the road, peppered with reflections on his family, history, and life's simple pleasures. In these pages, Ingram confronts the disappointments of middle-adulthood set against his Big Desires. "It was okay," Ingram writes of a roadside meal he gets along the way, "in the way that about eighty-five percent of life is okay." 600 10 $a Ingram, Mike, $d 1977- $x Travel $z United States. 650 0 $a Automobile travel $z United States. 650 7 $a Automobile travel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00823217 650 7 $a Travel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01155558 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Creative nonfiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919909 655 7 $a Travel writing. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919983 655 7 $a Creative nonfiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Travel writing. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117022759.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DAA07F9A96FD11ED8856CD373CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
