Spirit Traffic recounts how, at the age of 50, the author learned to ride a motorcycle, overcame the terror of navigating her steep dirt driveway in Vermont, and, three days after her son’s college graduation, set off with him and her yoga-teacher husband (his stepdad) on a 10,000-mile two-wheel adventure that took them all into uncharted territory - both as novice riders, and as a family.

Motorcycles are the backdrop, but the family is the story..

I listen to a lot of audio books, and this one did exactly what the best of the best do. It made me tear up at the end…A little tear for how it sums up at the end, a little tear for the sharing of the journey, a little tear for the happiness, and insight it brought, and a little tear of sadness that it has ended.
Like, dislike, indifferent about motorcycles? It matters not. The motorcycle is simply the vehicle. The story is of a family unit traveling 10k miles together to some well known locations, and many not well known. This story is during a life transition for them all. The author has something for every reader to ponder. She is someone you would probably like to know. C. Jane Taylor reads her own book, and you do get to know her. Well worth it in my opinion.

The complexities that describe Michael Browne’s wines describe his life experiences, too. With a tumultuous childhood and an adolescence filled with feelings of isolation, Michael joined the circus when he was 12. By 18, he was a featured performer, fire-eater, unicyclist, high-wire walker, and trapeze artist. But it was during his work in the restaurant industry years later when Michael realized the simple beauty - and potential - of family and friends enjoying the perfect bottle of wine together.

Do you enjoy Pinot Noir Wine, or wine in general ?
Have you wondered about what separates a high end crafted wine compared to a low price wine? What about the business and marketing aspects?
What is really important in crafting wine, and attention to detail. Or how about a interesting story about a young man from a rural town in Washington State, who joined the circus. In time saving tips along with his partner working at a restaurant to buy grapes in Sonoma County, and learning so many lessons moving forward. Finally the wine community, and the interaction amongst everybody in assisting one another.
I have listened to a lot of audio books. The readers are generally good. This gentlemen was exceptional. I am speaking about William Shatner.
Wow, I couldn’t stop listening, and sat in the car when I got home not wanting to leave the story, and the story teller. This book is also in print form,but I highly recommend the audio book. Well done Mr. Browne, and Mr.Shatner.
