Chasing Dawn: An Adventure of Three Fathers and Four Teenagers Bicycling Across America - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Charlie had a moment somewhere in Wyoming, saying, "Dad, this trip has been amazing. Life-changing. I feel totally transformed. Can I go home now?"

Over the summer of 2017, three dads and their four teenagers bicycled over 4000 miles from Seattle to Yarmouth, Maine. This is their adventure.

If we want our kids to possess humility, perseverance, wonder, awe, problem-solving, and gratitude, then we should create an adventure that requires us to persevere through something difficult, solve real problems out in the world, and be filled with awe and wonder and splendid sights. And we should accomplish this by ourselves, in unfamiliar and often challenging parts of the country, far from help.

One of the primary reasons we took the trip was to seek adventure to embrace the unknown, to set out to experience new parts of the country, and to encounter new people. But another big reason was that we wanted to give our kids an opportunity to further their development toward adulthood.
