I'm Driving Cross-country Right Now

I can’t imagine leaving the northwest for Texas


But hey dude


You do you

I always do.

It's too bad I saw this thread only today. I'd have invited you to stay at my house in Peoria (Arizona). No, I don't care particularly if we get along politically, it's the polite thing to do. Besides, meeting someone from this board FTF would be interesting. You learn in 10 minutes more about them than you would in 10 years of posts.

That might be a real problem for Lurch.

I appreciate the sentiment. Thank you! I stayed one night in Chandler on the way down. I've been all over AZ. If you get the chance, head up to the Heber/Overgaard area and check out the Rim. It's about 3 hours NE of you, I believe.

Nice of you to comment. I don't think you ever leave your basement. You're either up all night, posting manic horseshit or sleeping off your drugs and booze.

Dry out and leave your cave once in a while. The fresh air won't kill you. Like your booze will.

Tuesday I "pussed out" and only made it from north of Seattle to Portland.

But yesterday I made it all the way from Portland to Reno. My vehicle has a 5.2 liter engine, seat coolers/heaters, cold AC and instant heat and drives like a dream.

It was raining yesterday in Portland, but when I got to Ashland (southern OR) it stopped and my navi took me east over the Sierras, through the Lassen NF in Northern CA and dumped me out in a town called "Susanville, CA". From Susanville it was a straight, 90-mile shot south to Reno. I made it in time to have all you can eat Sushi

Note: I'm at the Circus Circus in Reno this morning. DO NOT STAY HERE. I've been coming here since the 80's and it's been great, but they've let it devolve into a dump. Holes in the lampshades, lights flickering in room, no toiletries in the bathroom.

Also, a quick note about traveling alone: Getting back into my vehicle after a pee stop yesterday I heard a couple arguing about the guy's driving - "You drive like a maniac", she screamed at him. <-- I do not mind traveling alone one bit. I have satellite radio - that's all I need

Cue - Radar Love!

Cue - Radar Love!

"And the radio played that forgotten song"

"Brenda Lees, "coming on strong""!

But to answer your question, I just joined a Texas gym chain, so I guess I'm staying. I'm still headed up to Colorado this weekend, though. Have my itinerary all done.

[Doc Dutch]

No. I'm going to stay in Texas. Or Colorado.

To visit or live? Colorado is scenic, but expensive. Texas has a low cost of living and no income taxes.

I just joined a Texas-based gym chain so you guessed it - Texas.

[LurchAddams]

Back on the road right now, headed to Colorado! I'm at a Loves/Subway right now powering down a half-sub.

It's a cool, cloudy day. I'm gaining altitude as I go north, it's possible I could see some snow on the way.

I love driving!

Have a great day, everyone!

You know what I think? That Hawkeye doesn't give a rat's ass what you "think".

Neither do I.

Better to be in a basement than on a cross-country tour of gay bathhouses, Dahmer-style.

You know, I've never done the bathhouse tour. Tell us, was it everything you hoped for?

[LurchAddams]

I'm taking it easy this time. Drove a little over 400 miles. Gonna head down to the bar and check, the Phillies/Astros score.

Hope everyone had a great day!

[LurchAddams]

Just got me some sharp Broncos gear at the local WalMart. I'm gonna be stylin' back in Texas, baby!
