A Change of Scenery
After reading three espionage novels—actually after consuming the stories, I developed a penchant for looking behind my back, checking tall men wearing black, and walking a different way to the coffee shop each day.
Realizing that my abilities at survelliance were limited and my age probably precluded any additional training I moved on to other genres.
I've traded in my spy novels for tales of intrepid travelers——not tourists. This week I'm headed for Machu Picchu with author Mark Adams. He, along with a guide, mules, sleeping bags and tents follows Hiram Bingham III's travels in Peru during the early 1900s.
This means some rather arduous trekking since Mark Adams desire is to step Bingham's exact footsteps, or as close to exact as one can possible follow.
According to Adams,Dr Brigham may be the model for Indiana Jones.
