Armand and Tomas. Doesn't it sound like the title of a book about a bullfighter and a bull? Armand and Tomas.
Armand, and the husband of his only child, Ann, have been travelling west from Colorado to California. This week, they'll head north to their final destination: Sunriver Resort in Oregon, where Tomas' family is gathering for a reunion.
There was an Armand siting in Colorado by Maribeth Lane of Ohio. She and her family spotted Armand on the way to Dream Lake. By then, our notorious traveller had aroused a "Free Armand" campaign. According to Tomas, Armand doesn't get more than 15 feet away from his car before engaging someone in conversation. Mondo-logues Rule!
Some of their stops along the trail:
- Dinosaur National Monument
- Cedar Breaks National Monument
- Death Valley
- Sequoia National Park
- Yosemite National Park
If you spot Armand along Route 395 on the way north, say "Hi", snap a photo and send it to me. You'll have to be quick, he's a man on the move.
