Rob Scharpf was born in Kingston and lived in the Kingston and Woodstock area for nearly half a century, during which time he often traveled Route 28 in pursuit of hiking, skiing, camping, canoeing, and fishing. After a 30-year career with a major computer manufacturer, he and his dog Rip departed Kingston aboard Rob's sailboat Uncle Wiggily, bound for Florida. Upon reaching Florida unscathed, Rob spent more than two years researching and writing this guide to his favorite road so other people can share the enjoyment and adventure of Route 28. When asked why he wrote about route 28, Scharpf replied, "It's an exciting road. It leads to mountains and valleys, lakes and streams, cities and villages, and a cornucopia of activities, attractions, and adventure. It's like no other road in the world. Drive it and you'll see." Rob and Rip currently live in Melbourne, Florida.
