This blog tells the stories of a journey across the country from Portland, OR back to the East Coast. First, here is some background on the two writers. Luc Schuster is on the Cambridge School Committee and is a student at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government. Matt Meyersohn works for the Boston Celtics in Community Relations and Player Development. Luc spent the summer in Portland doing an internship and has his car with him. At a Red Sox game before he left, he somehow convinced Matt to fly to Portland at the end of the summer and drive cross country back to Boston with him. In order to get Matt to agree to the trip, Luc suggested playing golf each day along the trip (most of Matt's friends/family think he's completely nuts, except for the golfers - they understand!). We had time constraints on both ends so needed to do the trip in 7 days. Luc's last day of his internship is Friday, August 21st and Matt needs to be at a rehearsal dinner (not for his wedding) in New York City at 6pm on Friday the 28th. The following is a description of their adventure.
