Publisher's Note
What happens when two executives leave their jobs, friends, and the city behind to hit the road in a twenty-seven foot RV? America the beautiful becomes a place of sights, foods, people, memories, and a little wisdom.After fifty-two combined years in the corporate fast lane, Marilyn Abraham and her husband, Sandy MacGregor, embarked on an adventure that every work-driven professional dreams about but hardly ever has the courage to realize. They quit their jobs and hit the road in order to retrain themselves in the art of living. For almost a year, the couple traveled nearly 20,000 miles to thirty-one states, including Washington, Montana, Colorado, New Mexico, Tennessee, and through seven Canadian provinces to Alaska, in the hulking RV they named Sue.More than just a travelogue, First We Quit Our Jobs is the story of recreating ones life and discovering what is real, what is true, and what is important. Filled with visions of Americana, this personal and touching memoir traces the author's search for meaning in this modern day.

Industry reviews
"This is salvation by fun, a 12-step program for plan-oholics....[Y]ou'll enjoy the prospect of its author as a late-20th-century explorer, standing in awe as the vista of Santa Fe unfolds before her: 'Excellent museums, world-class galleries, community theaters, several bookshops, plenty of movies and many many great restaurants'."
New York Times Book Review - Rand Richards Cooper (06/01/1997)
