thecarwreck Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I never make threads but suggestions are appreciated. So wifey and I are driving from NY to Santa Fe next week and looking for fun/weird/dumb shit to do along the way. Anything along the way is fair game... it's our own little Easy Rider mixed with Fear and Loathing... here's the itinerary: Columbus > Nashville > Memphis > Little Rock > Dallas > Lubbock > Santa Fe. Santa Fe for a week then trains to Chicago and back to NY. Pics in the aftermath for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earl broclo ESQ Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 ^^^ Yeah, same here. I read the book and made a thread a while back. I actually have the movie on netflix right now, but haven't been in the right mood to watch something like that yet. That book was fucking amazing.

gasfacevictm Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Yeah, the book was sad, but actually seeing this shit happen on the screen was brutal. It didn't help that I did like 5 bongs hits beforehand either. I should have eaten a bottle of Xanax instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecarwreck Posted June 22, 2010 Author Share Posted June 22, 2010 Get the thread views with a misleading title... If this trip is half as epic as McCarthy's book, I'm stoked. Read Blood Meridian, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
