The Beast and Me

Monday, April 20, 2015

Here's another version. A little less northward, maybe more time to explore Wyoming.

I just ordered a couple of books of maps. One is a 2014 Rand McNally road atlas. And another is the Wyoming book from a series of road and recreation atlases by Benchmark. I really enjoyed poring over the dead-tree New Mexico map I got for free somewhere on the last trip. And it's pretty useful to be able to plan a few days ahead even if you don't have internet where you're camped. Besides, maps are inherently cool.

And I promise to remember that the map is not the territory, as Korzybski reminded us!

Here we go ...

This is about my travels in a 1999 24-foot class C motorhome, which I sometimes call "the Beast." It's also about projects, renovations, repairs, and plans which occur to me when I'm on the road.

There's a lot of these RV travel blogs out there. I've listed below some of the ones I read regularly. My intention is not so much to publish a travel magazine, but to record where I went and what I did and what I did to the rig and what I'd like to do. Something close to the original meaning of "log." Random thoughts on the general enterprise of RV travel will creep in.
