Leaving new Orleans finally. I love that city. Can’t wait to make it back. Good thing I have Gramma waiting up for me in Memphis.

And much of it has to do with the darkness.

DR and I kept moving closer to LA today. We visited OKC, Norman, and Santa Fe. Lots of great places. Oklahoma U has a great campus and Santa Fe has the only round capitol building.

St. Louis crushed all hopes of a breakfast of champions with champions. You are not our friend, STL.

While I was napping, DR remembered that Rob courtney goes to school in Indianapolis. We were planning a run in Indy on the drive out west. So we called Rob 15 minutes out to gather his location and warn him of our arrival. He’s an amazing kid letting us stop on such short notice, run [...]

you’ll make the best time driving at night. if you’re on a long trip and you don’t have many stops to make, this is going to make the trip so much easier and faster. traffic is sparse and consistent and you don’t have to slow down for other idiot drivers. it’s much easier being the [...]

this tip should be obvious to most of you reading this. i love mail. you’ve probably even received mail from me. when i take roadtrips, i always pick up a few postcards along the way. it’s a great way to document the trip and let everyone know they’re on your mind when you’re away.
roadtrip trick #4: take breaks

taking breaks are essential on long roadtrips. get out, stretch your legs, and relax. this video is from my break in lincoln, nebraska.
remember that time pants cooked the food you like, hosted the tailgate, let you stay over night, visited you too often at school, learned how to text, took you to practice, made you feel uncomfortable when asking you about a gf or bf, cried when you left home, loved you more than should be possible. you probably do. cause it happens everyday.
