In June 2011, I was provided the opportunity to take a month-long sabbatical during which I had an opportunity to follow Robert Pirsig's path in his book, Zen and The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, and become a Pirsig Pilgrim. I'm thankful to have had my pop go with me for the first three days and my buddy Brian join me for two great nights of camping in Montana and Idaho.

First Day of Sabbatical
Although this is officially a vacation day, I'm still considering it the first day of the sabbatical. Spent most of the day in bed though due to a cold. Have begun laying everything out and preparing my final packing list. Bike is in the shop getting oil changed and brake fluid topped off. Return trip has been mapped out, will post a final itinerary before leaving. Found a great app that will let me take a picture and will then geocode to where the pic was taken. I can then enter notes and tags about the photo and as I do this a photo-travel map will be created along the route. When I'm finished, the entire route may be viewed by going to a map and clicking on the pins.
