132 Days: A Journey A Journal and some Whiskey

Sometimes you just have to get away. That unmistakable urge was already growing inside of Mike Krabal when he received advice from a wise soul of eighty-one years to "get out more." In October 2011, he traded his life in a small West Virginia town for 132 days on America's open road. Through vivid observation, he tells of hair-raising run-ins with wild animals, wild people and the wicked Hangover Fairy. Youthful curiosity charts the course and his trusty motorcycle, the Goose, hauls the gear. From the Atlantic to the Pacific, exotic landscapes, fresh mornings in unfamiliar towns and more than 17,000 miles pass. No detail is left behind in this friendly, funny and mischievous story of discovery away from home.
