Here’s a wonderful journal story, full of photos, about 2 girlfriends who explored the eastern USA in 1944 by way of bike and barge…and by truck and hitch-hiking and whichever way.

It’s a timeless tale of gumption. Here’s what one of them says early on:

* We were determined never to be put into the category with those who say, “I always wanted to, but never did.” *

Bravo!

I like how culture and a candid openness to new things are emphasized in their story. Marvelous!

And, of course, it starts with skills learned in…the Camp Fire Girls!

Right on!
