Aboard the Long Island Ferry — Video Dispatch

by Editor / Thursday, July 25 2024 / Published in Dispatches from the Road

On a beautiful spring day this May, Clay and his Airstream board the ferry from Long Island to New London, Connecticut, launching his trek, tracing John Steinbeck’s 10,000-mile Travels with Charley journey.

(Video by Nolan Johnson, LTA)

Over the next few months, Clay is shadowing Steinbeck’s 10,000-mile trek around the USA (and making a few detours of his own). Clay’s expedition is a central part of LTA’s big initiative to explore the country and take the pulse of America as it approaches its 250th birthday. Be sure to follow Clay’s adventures here and on Facebook — and subscribe to our newsletter.
