Travel Log - Hunting, Hitchhiking, Painting & Getting Dirty: Traveling Across America


Keepitrail

Recommended Posts

Been a long time since I been at the computer but I give yall a quick update on what's been going down. Thought I'd start a thread to see if any of you motherfuckers want to meet up or paint as I've been on the road for a while and could use some company. I can't access a computer very often but since I'll be traveling around quite a bit I'll update as I go, for whoever's interested.

 

I quit my job in June I think, and trashed all my shit. Kept what I wanted and chucked it in the car and took off. Started in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. I'll post up what I got since then in order...

 

 

Got the whip ready at my home boy's house - Mid-June

Back for a sec - - thanks for all the offers, I am sure I will be hitting at least one of you up when I get to your towns. I have no plans so I at basically just one spot to another.

 

 

Stayed in Memphis for a bit, I need to upload some flicks from there, but after that i decided I should check out Joplin, MO to see what's up with that tornado. I volunteered there for a week, I don't know how anyone can stand that shit for more than a day. Fucking wrecked..

 

 

Anyway, on the way there I stopped at the border of AK to pitch a tent at a fish hatchery. it smelled rank but it was really quiet.

and I woke up and ate some goddamn breakfast cause I hadn't eaten food in a few days.

and kept driving out to Kansas, where I took a side road and cut some fences and got all up on a windmill, they are massive. and I got back to my car and all these cattle were licking it, it was strange

I was lucky enough to have crew in Memphis to let me chill at their houses and shoot pool and get drunk, but as I always do I get restless feet in large cities and leave without saying goodbye, sorry guys.

 

flicks from Memphis, TN

I don't know if they left all the shit on all the time or what but it was strange..

 

 

I left and found this old mining town that was abandoned, I drove around for several days just wandering through the ashes of old business and slept in a fort I made

before too long these feral dogs came to me and were my friends for the next few days, they watched out and would not let me out of their sight for anything. I brought them some food and they slept outside my tent. When I left, I left them a tent to sleep in. Their names were Bone, Biscuit, and Ruin.

There were many strange places that I slept, and most of them were found at night, so I really didn't know where I was until the morning. I had a great deal of MRE's that a good friend had given me before I left, so I stayed somewhat on the lesser side of hunger. A lot of what I ate was either dumpstered or shot and skinned. Many wild plants I found, like pineapple weed, wild onion, chokecherries andlots of wild fruit, even an apple tree that was a great blessing.
