Seattle: Metronatural
I don’t even know that “metronatural” is really supposed to mean, or how it pertains to Seattle, but that’s what came up when I googled the city’s slogan. If I had to give it my own slogan it would be: Seattle: where road trips burn out. This is where we crashed and burned and officially [...]
Portlandia
Days 114 and 115 Portland is it! This place is where its at. I could easily make this place my home. We spent 2 jam packed days here. Here’s how it went down…. We pulled into Portland hungry. Parked in the trendy Pearl District Neighborhood, then stumbled upon a local hotspot, Hot Lips Pizza. It [...]
Timeout San Francisco
The last 3 days have been a real change of pace for us and we kinda lost our road trip groove a little bit. The stationary life is sucking us in.. It’s been so nice to wake up and have a kitchen handy. Ricky cooked eggs for us two days in a row! We have [...]
MTV Cribs: William Randolph Hearst
We had a long day today. First things first, we left our suite at the Madonna after some delicious pastries and juice that were delivered to our door. Yum. Northbound we went along one of the country’s most scenic highways, route 1 California. Today we will end up taking this road all the way to [...]
When In Vegas
The city of sin let us in! Although we don’t like gambling, we don’t go clubbing, I don’t drink and Jillian doesn’t like prostitutes. Las Vegas really isn’t our type of city, but we had to go see it. But before we end up there, let me tell you about some roadside art we found [...]
Drive By Numbers
This is Ricky Saetta reporting live from LA California. Our only stop in Las Angeles will be Universal Studios. Before we left on the road my mom gifted us tickets. Thanks mom. We spent last night at a Walmart in San Clemente then, this morning headed north along I-5. I almost shit myself when I [...]
Pop Culture Friday
We survived the night at slab city. Today we will end up in San Diego. At Salton sea we are pretty far south and kinda close to the SD but i’,m not driving that way because the drive is along the boarder and I’m not i the mood to be stopped and searched at every [...]
Occupying Denver
So we kinda shafted Denver. We didn’t do our usual where we find the coolest things to do and eat in the city and hunt them down. We were just too lazy today, but it turned out to be a memorable experience anyway. We met up with Amanda Shelton and she took us into downtown. [...]
Bring Your Guns, Leave Your Camera
I wake up to this loud commotion outside the van. It sounds like a goddam marching band. I peek out the winnow and it is a marching band. 4 buses full of Arkansas hogs, and they are surrounding the van. Turns out we parked in the section of the walmart lot that is roped off [...]
“Where At Least I Know I Free”
Texas is obsessed with Dr. Pepper. Just like their flags flying high, they are not ashamed to proclaim their love for this homemade soft drink. In Dublin, TX a Dr Pepper bottling plant still makes the original formula. I’m not from Texas but I do love DP, so we decided to make a pit stop [...]
