    Wow. Wow. Wow. We have some seriously talented artists in this community. I have major journal envy. Thanks for letting us peek inside your journal, Tony!

    Yes indeed – you’d be lucky to catch a stick-figure man in my moleskin journal, let alone a great sketch like your first page. Always good to hear from a runner.

    Whoa, How nice! Great sketches and liked the notes. Thank you Tony. It would be nice to see more posts and your travel itinerary. Am glad you were in Bhutan and you brought along several young folks. It is very important to let them see the world from a whole new perspective. Wht is your new book? Have a great weekend!

    Holy crap. I can’t decide which I like more, the artistry of the journal pages or the story which they tell. This is amazing.
