Stopped briefly in Lexington, Kentucky last night to sleep at a hotel. Saw this genius driving around while on Facetime just talking away when they should have been driving. Any semi drivers reading this are probably laughing like “yup, idiots everywhere”. Good times, stay safe out there people. Next morning I visited Knoxville, Tennessee briefly … Read more
Starting off a short trip spanning my Thanksgiving break to haul some things down to my mother in Mississippi, visit family, and then explore new states on the way back. As is very common with any furniture or residence moves for my mom, the weather chooses to make things a bit interesting. Exhibit A: a … Read more
End of trip, total distance 5,183 miles across 13 states in 23 days. A quick car wash and full tank of gas and it’s back to normal life and dreaming up the next expedition. Nothing too exciting in this post – I’m mainly creating it to drop a pin on my geomap. Click the link … Read more
The heat today was a problem; not only that, a few of the other spots I checked out had dried-up streams meaning no waterfalls meaning nothing to share. Fall colors are fading. And I was running out of time quickly so I couldn’t reasonably stay down south to explore the Ozarks further on this trip. … Read more
Not much to see here – just a quick pit stop at the Oklahoma border sign as I was leaving Fort Smith. Another angle. Main reason for this post is to put a pin in my Geomap feature of the site, another reason is just because. Lat = 35.4012413 , Long = -94.4458847 — Show … Read more
Spent the remainder of my afternoon driving NM-55/NM-337 heading north toward Tijeras. As the sun started to fade I checked the map and found some dispersed campsites in the Cibola National Forest off FR462 at the Coyote trail head which leads to Chamisoso Canyon Road. Overall this road is well graded but a few spots … Read more
One of the quirks of road-tripping is encountering all the fun little oddities along the way. State welcome signs fall into that category for me. Just north on IA-60 (which turns to MN-60) from Hawkeye Point at the intersection of 100th Street in the town of Bigelow you’ll find one of the “Minnesota Welcomes You” … Read more
Welcome to the start of my 2024 road trip that spans almost the entire month of October. I’ve basically taken no vacation this year and had nothing in specific in mind this year, so figured what better to do than become a willing nomad in search of some good old fashioned American road trip adventure. … Read more
Joined up with my local group of TacomaWorld hooligans for a weekend of camping, off-roading, and other shenanigans. We generally prefer the riverside sites for seclusion and because they are just generally great sites. This particular weekend we had quite a large group – I think ultimately the count was 19 total. To keep the … Read more
Joined up with some friends from the Tacoma World forums for a quick weekend trip. Started by camping near Mountain, WI in the National Forest. Weather was excellent and bugs were not bad at all for this time of year. Didn’t take too many photos because we were just enjoying the drive. Tried to sneak … Read more
