2075 Miles Later

The Turbo Pup's Back Home...


I think that it would be safe to say that we're through driving across the US--at least for the next few weeks.

I hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Years...Did we miss anything interesting?

2009? Dang I'm getting old...I remember 1969 pretty clearly.

After covering various parts of Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, and Kansas over the past 11 days, I'm glad to be able to sit down on my sofa for longer than a 48 hour period.

Then there was the trip a few weeks earlier that took me to Detroit, Indianapolis, and Cincinnati on airplanes. I'm still recovering from that experience and writing reports and doing follow-up work for our Attorney client and it looks like I might be heading off somewhere on an airplane again in late January or early February. As long as they pay dearly for my time--they just have to name the place and I'll be there with my camera and clipboard.

There was a period of time back in the mid and late 1990's when I averaged nearly 3,000 miles PER MONTH in the old Chevy Suburban, but the past ten years have taken their toll on my patience to sit in a car every day and most of every weekend running around the Southeastern US.

Other than a winter trip back to the farm in south Alabama I think we're done with the traveling for a while unless business dictates my appearance on another part of the planet I can't get to by walking.

I guess I have my work cut out for me this weekend in getting the christmas tree over to the recycling center and taking down the outside lights in order to not gain some kind of negative reputation among the neighbors.

Until next time...
