It’s time for the third installment in PJI’s Travelogues series. We follow Mike Connor’s adventures as he traipses across the US on a 30-day plane ticket. When we last left Mike, he had just put his feet in the mighty Pacific for the very first time… and all he could think was “is that all there is?  Very Peggy Lee, Mike. Very.

Mike is texting PJI with all the happenings of his 21st-century hobo trek, and we’re posting them all right here.  Thrill as he crosses the famed Golden Gate Bridge! Delight as he makes peace UN-style after the worst German “bombing” since World War 2!  Laugh as he becomes the very thing he hates most!  Ladies and gentlemen, Mike Connor’s Travelogues.

San Francisco continues

FIN

Well, Fin on San Francisco. So more like San Fin-cisco. Or Fin Francisco. Or San Fran-Fin-co is kind of catchy. When you say it, not when you write it.  Oh, nevermind. Just join us next time when we catch up with Mike in Boston U.S.A, okay?
