We wanted to have a little fun first, before we died. We wanted to see this place called "America" and see who was living there and to see if they were maybe like us and wanted the things we wanted, which was mostly to be free and to do what we wanted to do and go where we wanted to go and then come back and do it all again, but in a different way and with different folks. There wasn't any plan. We just got up one morning and started the truck and just went, you know. We just went out and lived our lives."
