Volume II: Traveling Across the U.S.A.

The Journal of the Traveling Squid is a project that was started in 2008 by Giant Squid and lensmaster extraordinaire, JaguarJulie. The original journal was signed by Julie, then sent to Gordon Hamilton in the United Kingdom, where it has been passed along from lensmaster to lensmaster ever since. Due to the popularity of the project, Julie decided to launch Volume II in the United States. I'm recipient number six—the journal has previously been in the hands of Gil (as in giltotherescue), Kimberly Dawn Wells, Seth Godin (yes, THAT Seth), Corey Brown, and Susan52. Please join me as I take The Journal of the Traveling Squid and the Giant Squid T-shirt on a scenic tour of my backyard, beautiful Hollywood, California.
