Hey from sunny California
 

Hey guys, just checking in. The family and I are on a cross county RV trip. (Forget it Blue Runner, the house sitter knows to look out for you).

Here is a link to my blog about the trip (its my first attempt @ blogging...I'm slowly learning).

Awesome trip! One of the last great epics available to us on land. I hope the kids appreciate it now and forever. :clap:

randle thats awsome good luck and have a great trip ... I envy you brother....:clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap:

You got that V-20 hooked up on back of that RV I hope!!...:party:

Very cool brother, my wife and I did a 34 day cross country job, BC(before children) in our VW Rabbit, camping out of it and every few day staying in a hotel. We were at a lot of the places you are at.
Enjoy

RMB, great trip & memories. my parents did the same thing when i was about ten those are some of my best memories of time spent with them.
have a great time..

Green with envy!!!

Hey RB...I down at Sunset Beach and of course been using ramp at OI bridge...Lowe's Foods built new store on corner where I 1st saw your boat...no more Boats For Sale Corner...I BUMMED OUT :cry:

Cross country trips by vehicle are great.

I have driven from Reading, Pa. to Los Angeles, Ca. about 6 or 7 times to visit my sons.
I have helped my sons with teh drive as well and to save time we drove straight through, I drive daylight while they sleep and then I sleep at night. 32 hours is our record.
When my wife and I do it, we take different routes every time, so much to see.
The first trip my wife said to me, " what the 4e77 am I going to do in a car for 3 days with you"? After that first trip, she was so in awe of teh country, she can't wait for our next trips.

I always say to everyone, it is a trip worth taking.

Just opened yer blog...GREAT STUFF!!...but I don't see the "V"...:cry:

Have fun at Wally World!!!!!!!!

Wow!
Since I can't go, I can't thank you enough for letting me see this through your words and pictures!

Tommy:hi:

Awesome RB!! You're out there making memories and I'm stuck at work.
Don't worry, I try not to vadalize police officers residences. LOL Besides, your V is not there so no reason to go over there anyway! Or is it?

Ya'll have fun and be safe! Hopefully I'll get to check out your blog. Its blocked of course. **SIGH**

:beer:Cool! Have fun:clap:

We are having a blast!!! I don't have the V with me but as I sit here looking out on San Francisco Bay, I wish I had it.

Actually BR, I pulled the V home on its new trailer last time I went to the beach.....thats why I told the house sitter to watch out for you.

REEL, at least you can get groceries without driving to Shalotte now, I bet there are a few for sales in other spots.

Thanks for all the comments guys, I will check back when I can, yall have fun at work.

Getting directions from Mapquest right now.....planning on increasing my range in my V with a well maintained 140 4 stroker. :sly:

I'll throw in w/ya for the trailer :sly:

We are still at it, everyone should try to do a trip like this, it is so awsome to see our country this way.

BR and Reel, glad I got good insurance on the V!

Shhhh, BR...don't say a word...:zip:
