About Me 

I am a Travelographer Extraordinaire.

I Enjoy the Ride by traveling and seeing the world around me. We are so busy speeding down the freeways of life that we miss out on the back roads and all the wonderful little stories that everyplace offers. Many of my visits can also be seen on my blog at http://lessbeatenpaths.com.

This travel blog will have short blurbs about the many unique places, strange named towns, roadside attractions and general found oddities, etc., that I have visited. One stop at a time. Many of these can be seen in detail at http://www.roadsideamerica. com, the BEST USA/Canada travel site on the internet!!

I am father of five, grandfather of 9 and happily married to my sweetheart for over 30 years. Fluent in Japanese. Happy and well traveled. See details at http://www.sumoflam.biz/SumoflamBio.htm
