Jaunted editor Paul Brady is back on terra firma in the U.S. after nearly a year away in South America. So how did he get back here? By taking the ultimate road-trip. All this week, he'll be telling us just how he did it. Any questions or suggestions? Let us know.

If 24 hours before, we'd been dreading a six-hour drive, the final leg of our one-way road trip started with a bit of melancholy of a different sort. Not because we'd been having a bad time but because it meant my trip--through South America, through the Gulf Coast and onward to Oklahoma--was about to end. It'd been so long since I'd stayed in one place, I didn't know what might happen when we arrived in Oklahoma.

But I put facing doubt about my future on hold while Pat Faser at the Fairfield Place served up a big plate of veggie frittata, sausage links, fresh fruit and a truly Southern biscuit alongside orange juice and coffee. I'd say the emphasis at this B&B was on breakfast if the bed hadn't been so comfortable.
