Sing it with me: “On the road again / Goin’ places that I’ve never been / Seein’ things that I may never see again / And I can’t wait to get on the road again…”
The words of the legendary country crooner and cannabis activist Willie Nelson have been in the back of my mind while staying home for the past year, unsure of when I’d actually and safely be able to get on the road again.

After Jenna Byom was furloughed from her job in the spring, she set her sights on a goal she started last year: visiting every one of Wisconsin’s 49 state parks.
Byom, who lives in Madison, had originally set the goal after some “hard personal setbacks,” including losing a job, a breakup, and moving to a new city.
“I needed a healthy way to ease my anxiety and depression, so I set a goal in addition to actual therapy,” she wrote in a Facebook post.
