The Ken Chronicles #17

The Ken Chronicles #17, digest, 32 pages, $2
The November 2010 installment of the chronicles of Ken Bausert. This issue is aptly titled "The Mostly Travel Issue" as Ken details some of the trips he has taken recently as well as a visit from a newfound cousin all the way from Germany. There's a short report on a couple trips to the beaches of Long Island, a few pages about a few days spent in Annapolis, and a 10 page summary of a two week visit to Daytona Beach. The Daytona Beach story has some comical moments, including thwarted attempts to find homemade ice cream and real southern fried chicken (and to top it off, Ken got rejected when he tried to buy a bottle of wine on a Sunday) as well as a persistant time share tour peddler (apparently Ken has sworn off having anything to do with time shares after the debacle detailed in issue #15). Ken's adventures are fun to read and complete with photos (some of them full color). There is also a letters section, so maybe yours will be included in the next issue.
