"Tracks and Horizons" paperback now available on Amazon!
Tracks and Horizons: 26 Countries on a Motorcycle
From 1964 to 1966, Carlos Caggiani travelled to 26 countries on a 1947 Indian Chief motorcycle with hardly a penny to his name. At 24 years of age, he embarked on the adventure of a lifetime.
He spent time with everyone from poor natives in the Andes mountains, to rich families in the United States. He crossed rivers without bridges, suffered famine, intense heat and cold, guided his motorcycle through rain and snow storms, rode on dirt and cobblestone roads, was chased by the FBI, was shot at in Bolivia during a revolutionary war, and had a serious accident due to a mechanical failure in Panama that left him hospitalized for 17 days.
The experiences in this book demonstrate a human being's tenacity and triumph in the face of adversity, and shows that anything is possible. There is always something more just beyond the horizon...and as the horizon expands, our limits disappear.

Jenny Craig: Year 2 - Week Thirty Seven
Up 1.2 after the BBQ. I now have a new incentive...reach a total of 50 pounds lost by Thanksgiving. I'm about 5 pounds away from reaching that milestone so I need to just do it. Five pounds in nine weeks should be easy, right?

Woo hoo! Down 2.4 pounds this week! Probably because I've been fighting a cold and my apetite has been slightly lower than normal. But still, I'll take it :-)
Of course Friday is our company picnic...Hawaiian BBQ. Gulp.

"Tracks and Horizons" now available on Kindle!
The Kindle version of "Tracks and Horizons" is now available on Amazon.com! This is the true life story of my father's two-year motorcycle trip around the world in the early 1960's. Here's the description:
From 1964 to 1966, Carlos Caggiani travelled to 26 countries on a 1947 Indian Chief motorcycle with hardly a penny to his name. At 24 years of age, he embarked on the adventure of a lifetime.

He crossed rivers without bridges, suffered famine, intense heat and cold, guided his motorcycle through rain and snow storms, rode on dirt and cobblestone roads, was chased by the FBI, was shot at in Bolivia during a revolutionary war, and had a serious accident due to a mechanical failure in Panama that left him hospitalized for 17 days.
The experiences in this book demonstrate a human being's tenacity and triumph in the face of adversity, and shows that anything is possible. There is always something more just beyond the horizon...and as the horizon expands, so do the opportunities available to us.
Look for "Tracks and Horizons" to come out in paperback in the next few weeks!
