it’s not about the apples

it’s not about the apples

Why, yes – I did fly from NYC to Chicago last week for a road trip to Michigan. Friends and strangers alike have declared me insane for footing the bill for a round-trip plane ticket and three days in a hotel, just to spend seven hours in a car with the end goal of picking…
