He settled in San Francisco in the late 1980s and has since been back to Yosemite many times. When he's not meandering hiking trails, exploring mountain byways, or scouring junk stores for old Johnny Paycheck records, he works as a freelance writer and editor. He wrote the Rough Guide's Country Music and Country: 100 Essential CDs; for Lonely Planet, he contributed to Out to Eat - San Francisco and coauthored both the second edition of USA and the third edition of California.
