So basically, the trip was fairly uneventful. I drove pretty much 18 hrs a day, with small breaks to let the dog get out and stretch her legs. Cruise control @ 70 and audiobooks. Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter was pretty bad ass. My back passenger window decided to stop working in Oklahoma, so no A/C for the second half of my trip :(

My thoughts on the south / southwest are:

California - communists

Arizona - rocks and casinos

New Mexico - scenic lighting lol

Texas - I was dissapoint, everything was NOT bigger

Oklahoma - boring

Alabama - hot, full of cops and more porn stores than gas stations

Tennessee - lots of Jesus billboards, and trees finally

Kentucky - more trees

West Virginia - even more trees and no power lol

My place is pretty rough, we had a hand pump for water we were using but that broke this morning so I'm in town to find us a replacement, thus the wifi access. I'm working on cleaning things up now, and exploring the property. Give me a week or two and I'll start a thread and upload some pics and outline my projects.

Thanks for the support everyone, and thanks for updating things while I was on the road vapor. Talk to u guys soon!

So we finally have electric again, wound up getting a sump pump for water access. It's rainy today so I'm having to spend most of my time doing stuff inside (man I'm loving having real rain again). The place needs all kinds of work and I have more projects than I can handle! There's limited time before winter comes so I'm really having to prioritize what I work on. So far it's mostly been water access and yard/house cleanup. I'm posting frok my iPhone, so uploading pics is kind of a pain. Once I get my computer all set up I will probably start a thread so everyone can see what I'm working on.
