First Happy Memorial Day to all families, friends and veterans. Enjoy whatever you feel like doing today, you deserve it.
Started my trek west on Saturday the 23nd of May. Two things that are not good ideas....1, Don't think you will stop in Charlotte, NC on Memorial Day weekend at midnight and expect to find a hotel vacancy, why you ask...hmmm....NASCAR's biggest event! That place was so out of control packed that I ended staying on the out skirts of the town in a Bates type crazy talk motel-ish joint almost on the freeway... Okay number 2, Just driving a moving truck with your g-ride on a trailer and expect to get somewhere during Memorial Day weekend. It has been slow moe the whole way, thanks to all the families enjoying their time together and being out on the roads and all but damnnnnnn soooonnnn get outta my way!
And apparently the Popo are not that big of fans of male nudity...weird I know but I thought pictures of each states welcoming sign in some form of undress would be coo.....wrong. Isn't it a federal law that women should be flashing me on this half cross country expedition??? no...damn.
Anyway, here is the rig during my stop at a friends' place in Baton Rouge, LA on 25 May.
And the start on Saturday in Virginia Beach;
Tales from the road! C'ya

How far west are you going?
Any part of NC during any NASCAR time = not cool.
The truck is a Penske so I thought that it would give me some props from the NASCAR proud but no....weird.
