Roadtrip 2008

From BovineNet

I went on a cross-state roadtrip this July 2008 over a 2 week period.

My LiveJournal blog post describes my final trip, including links to my photos.

[edit] Plans

Map of general travel plans.

I'll be driving by myself in my Jeep Wrangler, and stopping whenever I reach a nice place or I get tired. The entire loop that I've tentatively planned out is about 4500 miles, but I may choose to cut things short if I start running out of time or get bored.
