I’ve Been Everywhere, Man
With mere days to go until the half-cross-country trip begins, I’m starting to feel the pressure to be completely organized. Granted, I’m probably twenty times more organized than an average person would be at this point, but when has that ever been good enough for me?
I have piles of stuff building up around my apartment right now and a huge security trunk sitting by my front door. The plan is to tether the trunk into my Jeep with braided steel cable and lock valuables inside when away from the car. As you may or may not know, the soft top of a Jeep Wrangler isn’t exactly the most secure thing in the world. One knife slash later, I’m spending $80 to replace a rear window. The last thing I need to do is add my precious electronics to that list. Sure, that stuff is covered by insurance, but who wants to go through the trouble of filing claims?
Anyway, you might be wondering if I’m planning anything special while the trip is underway. The answer to that is “probably.” I’d like to post a daily image to my blog and maybe a quick blurb along with it. I don’t think I’ll have time to do much more than that though. A third of my day will be taken up with driving a car, after all.
Also, FYI, I updated my “About” page. If you already know me, there’s no new information there, but you can feel free to proofread it!
