E – “Long distance information give me Memphis, Tennessee”
It wasn’t intentional at the beginning of planning this trip but once we started it became apparent that the second half of the trip would have a ton of music related stuff and Memphis just enhanced the whole leg. For those that have known me a long time, you know I have always been an…

E – Kick’n it in the Bayou
New Orleans was awesome! The site I booked here was one of the earliest as the Jazz Festival was in town and you had to book a minimum stay, which was fine with us, and the place is very popular. It only has like 55 sites and you can walk to the French Quarter. We…

E – Yikes! What a way to Start
We started planning this trip last fall and I started booking the major stops in September. We knew the route and where we wanted to make longer stops and needed to add the minor stops that break up the driving into manageable chunks. With that done it was time to think about getting the rig…
