I'm Back

Yep. I'm back in Washington, DC. Home.

I got a bit complacent with the blog over the last week of the trip and I apologize for that. The long trips took a toll on my energy and I was trying to see as much as I could before I had to get back to the "rat race".

The final stop of the trip came down in Cullowhee, NC to visit AI once more. There, he cooked me several meals and did my laundry. We also watched many football games and movies such as 3:10 to Yuma and Kung Fu Panda. That's right, Kung Fu Panda.

Thank you to the loyal readers.

Also want to thank all those who offered up interesting ideas on things to do along the way. I tried to do as much as possible in the short amount of time that I allowed myself. Believe it or not 6 weeks isn't very long to see our whole country. The next time I go out I'll do it with a co-pilot and I'm sure there will be other things to see. I put over 11,400 miles on my Dad's brand new Honda Odyssey. So I'd say he deserves some thanks as well.

I don't know what will happen to this blog now. I haven't given it much thought as to whether I will try and post on it in the future, but it's been fun and I hope it's inspired others to go out and see the country.

Creamy And Smooth

Awesomeness on a stick. I had the Mexican Caramel Popsicle.
Unfortunately no photo is available of the actual desert.

El Lobo At Baja Burrito

Excellent menu and selection. Gerard likes hot sauce on everything he
eats, but not Texas Pete. Blasphemy to the folks from Winston Salem.

The Best Room Is Upstairs To The Left

Gerard's cunning attempt to trick me.

It worked.

Just Missed It

Unfortunately, I got to Amarillo too late and they were closed for the
night.

I hear the steaks here are quite good.
