Frank Schlichting Letters from a Retired Madman

On the Road

Wherever Frank Is

His photos and his words from the road, as he posts them, kept by trip and by stop — the towns, the camps, the mines he finds along the way. Nothing here is tidied up after him.

The first trip is being written up.

Letters from a Retired Madman
Come along. One photograph. One story. Once a month.

That’s the whole deal. Frank picks one photograph out of the archive, tells you the story of the day it was taken, and signs off until next month. A short P.S. points to what’s new on the site, and that’s it.
