Helping the economy...

With the economic crisis, and the high unemployment rates, I did what any good-hearted American would do to help his or her country, I quit my job and hit the road. I followed George W. Bush's advice and went out and spent money.

The most unexpected result of this trip was the amount of used books I purchased. This really could be my trip to used book stores around America.
