This is the story of Peter and Karen Wolfe planning and executing a bicycle trip across the US. The trip began April 18th from La Jolla, CA and is set to end on July 4th at York Town, VA. We have borrowed a 21-foot motorhome from our cousins. We sleep in the rv at night and it drags all of our stuff. Various drivers are taking turns supporting us and meeting us to bring water and set up our camping spot each night.

Last-Minute Silliness
We have a tent! The newlyweds can sleep outside and avoid the crowds.
We start driving tomorrow! We are running around saying things like, "Ok, this is the last time I have to vacuum for three months." " This is the last load of laundry before we go!" and "This is the last time I have to yell at the dog." etc.
Peter is loading up the 4Runner to look like the Beverly Hillbillies' Truck. We have so much stuff that we can have a yard sale on the road. We could set up a MASH unit with all the medical supplies he's bringing. Or create a set for Oklahoma! in a parking lot- we have enough tools to do it.
My job was loading the ipod with audio books and buying plane tickets for certain RV drivers. I packed my Dr. Suess bike jersey (thank you, Suzanne) and my spare undies. I'm Ready!

The Beverly Hillbillies were never so bold! At least you're trading up for a larger vehicle.
ReplyDeleteYou are exactly the kind of car that I steer clear of on the freeway.
