What Folks Are Saying

About Road, his writing, and photography:

“You are extremely talented and I love reading your posts. You set the reader right next to you, it’s an experience.” ~ Cindy, @northologyoverland

“Absolutely love your writing style. I am more of a visual learner, but I force myself to read your posts and always come away with something special. You have a great gift and I am fortunate enough to be able to experience it.” ~ Justin Pitcairn, @pitcairnoverland

“You ooze authenticity.” ~ Holly York, @texasadventureher

“Following your journey is inspirational as well as informative. We hope to be as kind and respectful to the road as you’ve been.” ~ J.Z. O’Brien, @j.z.obrien

“I LIKE that your feed is about a variety of things…cooking, art, camping, nature, travel, photography…It’s what makes it interesting. You just keep going on being your bad self! Your posts are thoughtful and enjoyable. I hope you get back out soon so we can all see and read about your next adventure👌” ~ Michael Zigmond @michaelzigmondart

“Your posts make me happy, thanks for sharing 🤗♥️” ~ Diana Hernandez, @dianahdz88

“You were a #vanlifer before it was a thing! You’re a legend!” ~ Joe Mayernik, @mountainjoeparkcity

“It isn’t about what you drive, or how much you spend. Click on Road’s links, and note that he lives in that setup nearly full time, and has adventured more so far this year in the SW deserts, Texas beaches, southern back bayous, and NE woods than most folks do in a lifetime. All the while, meeting interesting folks, soaking in (and becoming part of) the local culture, and teaching us vicariously through his stories.” ~ Steve, @explore_the_usa

“You have a golden eye.” ~ Marc Zingarelli, @marczing

“A portrait of a man who knows no limits and no boundaries.” ~ Joey Slayton, @joeythebrofessor

“That’s nice, dear.” ~ Ma, @motherofroaddude

On the Road in America

THE BIG PAUSE of 2020-21

ROADDUDE.COM is usually about one man’s travels and photography around North America.

During The Big Pause of 2020-21, however, it is about making quality cloth & fabric face masks and face coverings for the public. Every mask purchased enables more to be made for donation.

I have made, sold, and donated thousands, as far away as Sudan.

Stay safe, stay clean, stay healthy!

Thank you for your orders and support!


Kudos from Customers for Face Masks I make, sell, and donate throughout the pandemic:

“The best design I’ve seen.” ~ Richard F, California

“We love your masks and use them all the time! They are the best fit from different types we tried. I was actually thinking of ordering more :)” ~BW, Cambridge MA

“We really love them. The quality is amazing and they are comfortable. Will be great for hiking and work.” ~ Beckie G, SW Harbor

“Both my husband and I love the masks. Fit very well and stay in place when talking.” ~ Susan W, Livermore Falls

“The masks arrived today! Thanks so much. They are terrific! Best fit, most comfortable, most stylish of any I have worn or seen.“ ~ Elaine J, SW Harbor

“Excellent mask! Highest quality and fit. Find it very comfortable and breathable. Much better design than the pleated style. If you care, please wear!” ~ Jane W, Scarborough

“Outstanding quality comfort and fit. These are as good if not better than pictured on the web. Worth the wait and cost. I would buy again. Have recommended you already. Five star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating!” ~Janet, Rockport

“Got ‘em!!! Arrived today and they are impressive.” ~ Bob B, Maine

“Thank you so much for the quality masks. The fit is great. Good work!” ~Lynn B, Maine

“Really quite nice and much needed!” ~Kathy H, Maine
