Baby, Let’s Travel! Librarian Can Identify with Globetrotter Joe Tash
Freelance writer talks about his family's around-the-world trip at the La Mesa Library—and Jessie Goodwin opens up about road-tripping with Miles.

“We recently took my new baby on a road trip to visit family in Montana,” Goodwin said of the 10-day adventure through Las Vegas and then Ogden, UT. “We had family in each stop along Interstate 15.”
She says baby Miles was a little trouper, though his sleep pattern left something to be desired.
