West to East Cross-Country Trip–Day 7

We left this morning at 9:30AM and headed north to our only stop for today in Savannah, Ga. There, after about 20 minutes of cussing the senseless one-way streets, we finally arrived at the Georgia State Railroad Museum. After paying our admission, we went in and stayed about an hour. Beth took a ton of […]

West to East Cross-Country Trip–Day 6

Tonight’s post will be a bit short, because while we had a great day, we didn’t really visit any scenic locations for photos. Instead, we spent the early morning recovering from last night’s festivities, and then drove straight through to Venice from Pensacola. We left Pensacola at around 11 AM and got to Venice around […]

Today was a bit more difficult than yesterday for a lot of reasons. For starters, lack of sleep was a big problem. I didn’t get to bed last night until 1 AM, and due to the poor AC in the room that led to 95 degree temps at 1 AM, along with my existing sinus […]

West to East Cross-Country Trip – Day 1

Well today went well, though a bit more hectically than we planned due to a brain-fart on my part (but I’ll get to that). We began well, Beth had the majority of things packed last night, so I just loaded them up this morning, and we were ready to head out by 8:45 AM. The […]

Cool weird places to check out

Georgia GuidestonesUltra-strange story and a pretty cool set of “commandments” nestled in the middle of nowhere.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_Guidestones The Great Blue HoleBig almost circular “pit” in the ocean in Belize. Strange looking as hell, but a popular place for divers. Really freaks me out.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Blue_Hole Victoria FallsYes, you can swim right at the edge of the largest waterfall […]
