Travels with Mossback

Have laptop, will travel.

I will be road-tripping through the "Great Nearby" and beyond for the next couple of weeks, gathering little moss and looking for cheaper gas. I plan to file a few stories from the road. I expect you to have Seattle whipped into shape by the time I get back. And that means you, Piper, Stuka, and the rest of the gang.
