Every adventure needs a plan. A flexible, general overview of a plan. So far all Max and I have planned is to move out of our condo in Old Town Alexandria, VA (right outside DC) on the closing date -- current target is May 1, 2009. We're headed west to our other coast in The Maxinator, a 2006 Mercury Mariner.
If you have any recommendations or ideas of where we can stop for fun, food or shelter, please share!

Austin!! We have not one but two guest beds and a dog your dog can eat. Congrats on finding a buyer!!! Hope you have an easy sale and closing.
ReplyDeleteOK, you are on my list! I'm thinking I'll be in Raleigh through Mother's Day weekend, then head to Texas...will Chez Fu's Room be available in late May?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! Woo-hoo! Can't wait to see you again and to meet Max.
ReplyDeleteOne other thought that comes to mind is to tell you to be sure and check into the Natchez Trace through Mississippi and I think Louisiana. It's an untarnished route..."untarnished" as in there are no billboards or tacky tourist stuff allowed, very pristine drive back in time before everything went to hell in a handbasket :) We did it when I was a kid and I still remember how beautiful it was.
Cool, thanks!
ReplyDeleteAfter Austin, we're headed to Big Bend Nat'l Park...thought I'd stop in Marfa en route to Truth or Consequences, NM...and Pie Town, NM...any thoughts on where to stop between Austin and Big Bend, or should we go straight through? Any ideas on where to stay in Big Bend, or did you just go to Marfa?
I'll check out your Marfa blog for places to see as we pass through!
Oh, Gina may meet me in Austin on the last day and we'll drive together to Big Bend...timing is tenuous...so Max and I may be on our own.
