  • Reflecting on the Diversity of Liquor Laws in the South

    Before this camping trip (I hesitate to call it a trip since I\’m going ton two years now) I had never been to the South. Since embarking on this incredible voyage, I have checked off the states of Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, Georgia, North Carolina and revisited Texas. During this trip, I have encountered…

  • Groceries

    I\’ve been surprised at how easily it is to get things delivered to the campgrounds where I\’ve been staying. Much to the surprise of other campers, I\’ve had access to Kroger, Wal-Mart, Target, Home Depot, Lowe\’s, Walgreens, CVS, Best Buy, Family Dollar, Kohl\’s, Dillards, a variety of liquor stores and even the Container Store. Having…

  • O2 Sensors…… maybe not.

  • …and we\’re back. In Texas

    I arrived in Texas late Saturday morning. And my new home for the next three months awaiting around mid-afternoon. My goal for this segment was to avoid toll roads and Houston and hit this area during non-peak traffic. As it turned out, I hit all the tolls roads, drove right through Houston with all of…

  • Rebounding…..

    I got the truck back on Monday. Two new tires, new tire pressure sensors, labor $1000. Wrote a letter to BBB regarding AAA for some $$$. Requested $971 reimbursement for hotel, car rental and other expenses. We\’ll see how that goes. I\’ve always gotten what I\’ve asked for when complaining to AAA. So I\’m spending…

  • and then…… thing go horribly downhill

    After an amazing weekend in New Orleans, things went downhill quickly. The snow came. And came. And still came. New Orleans is not equipped for snow. Especially 11.5 inches of snow in some parts. The snowfall trampled the previous snowfall record of 2.7 inches set in 1963. And it was cold. Having a 4-wheel drive…

  • New Orleans part deux

    So New Orleans is totally my type of city. I\’ve been wanting to come here for years and my expectations have been met and exceeded. It is a short $15 Uber ride from my camping spot to the French Quarter. I landed at a bar outside of the French Quarter because I wanted to walk…
