I create my itinerary with the full intention to see it through, but I will also indulge any whimsy in getting sidetracked. I may have been less inclined to get sidetracked if I, like Karl, was riding a bicycle when travelling, but that’s not the case. Consequently, “Sidetracked” will become a regular feature of the Karl Chronicles, as I anticipate there will be lots of sidetracks on this adventure, starting now, in New Brunswick.
