RE: Westward, ho! 2001
Rad, gojo writes his 'Westward, ho! 2001' reports out longhand and tapes them to Sarabelle's back. Sarabelle runs off looking for a nother stinky butt to smell which she always seems to find at a Kinkos. The friendly folks at Kinkos scan gojo's report using OCR software and then post it to TT. So, all in all, there's no need to worry...just forget the damned computer for a while!

This is a cool thread. It's like this really interesting cross-country trek/Real World episode. If we could add some hot details about the love life and a few dramatic fights w/ random people it would really be cool.

RE: Westward, ho! 2001
We're in St. Augustine, FL, now.

MAN! Weminuche was THE BOMB! We hiked 18 miles into Chicago Basin. Spent two nights -
three days. I'll do a report.

We left CO on Sat., 7/21 p.m. We drove down thru NM, and into West TX. I tried to contact Texy Woman from Pecos - the HOTTEST place on Earth - but her number is listed under a different name than what's on her business card - d'oh!

Anyhoo, we drove on into LA the next morning. We spent two days in Acadia... Cajun country! We had a BLAST! We stayed the night at Fosse Lake Point SP. I rented a boat there the next morn, and spent the day exploring the bayous, lakes, and canals. It was alot of fun. It was shore hot, tho - I gare-own-tee! St. Martinville, LA, gets the nod as the BEST town we visited on the entire roadtrip!

We got home to GA on Tuesday, 7/25.

Total miles: 7300
Days: 23

I'm at my step-sister's place in FL doing some odd jobs for her. I'm gonna rent a boat tomorrow and spend the day offshore fishing.

I gotta be back at school next Monday. Where did the summer go?!

God Bless America!
Especially Louisianna...
Hoo we... I gare-own-tee!

He got a great deal on a new tent.

He's marrying the Ranger Girl.

I'm not sure it can be his job. Wouldn't he lose something with his pension or senority if he left the state. It's a state job right, you can't just move from state to state?

He bought a kayak in his travels, and is mailing it home.

Where is sarabelle anyway, come on gojo, let the dog talk.

Good call switchback, I always suspected that his schitzoid act with the dog was a cover for his repressed sexual divergence.

Gojo is a 'mo.
