Our First Day on the Road

Well, after an amazing wedding weekend, we are off on our honeymoon. Most people know that we bought an old 1976 Dodge Camper to explore the U.S. after getting married, hence the title of this blog. Our original ideas for places we definitely wanted to visit included Nashville (since we are both country music fans), Memphis (since we are both Elvis fans) and we knew we wanted to inlcude a lot of Americana on our trip as well. We only recently got the idea in our heads that maybe we could even get as far as South Dakota and witness the sunset on Mount Rushmore.

So, we are going to see how far the old girl takes us. She is decked out with new curtains by JoAnn, a nice bike rack stocked with refurbished bikes from Anthony, and a really smart new radio by PJ and Riley that allows us to charge our phones, iPods and computers (which the original model of this vehicle did not come with). Here's where I have to apologize to my friend Cherilyn who so graciously came through with 8Tracks when we thought that was all we would be able to listen to. I guess we wont be needing them after all--although there was quite a nice selection!

So we will be posting updates and pictures and videos from our travels. If we emailed you this link and you are at all interested in keeping track of us across the country, make sure you follow this blog by adding yourself to that list over to the right ----->

See you soon!

Bobby and Shannon
