As of late 1932, Jim is just putting the finishing touches on his sketch of the alleged tryst between Queen Victoria and crypto-hobo Walt Whitman. Although he knows his productivity suffers, Jim refuses to use a camera. He is , however, interested in learning "Photoshop.'

Good Evening. This site is inspired by the writings of author John Hodgman and his book Areas of My Expertise. It is meant as an homage to the
wandering men and women who chose to ride the rails during and before The Great Depression, and not the contemporary urban (or rural) poor.
