I'm Stuck, And I'm Asking For Help

I'm Stuck, And I'm Asking For Help: But after shoddy work by a shop in MD, she needs her engine rebuilt. It's maintenance that's now beyond my financial capacity. #TMLRT2019 #TMLRT #CarTrouble #Parked #2001 #Volkswagen #Passat

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text](There’s a TL;DR version if you scroll down toward the end.)[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]When I bought my car for $500 in late 2016, she had 180,000 miles on her odometer. I’d been a year without a working vehicle of my own, and the feeling of being stranded and isolated took a heavy toll on me. Combined with the end of a relationship I treasured

Nebraska Said, "Hold My Beer"

Nebraska Said, "Hold My Beer": WTF, Nebraska? #ThereWasADeadBody #YouveGotToBeKiddingMe #NoImNotKidding #TMLRT2019 #TMLRT #Travel #Camping #RoadTrip #BoundForWashingtonDaCity #SFS19 #WTFNebraska #Nebraska

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]Back in May, I had one of the weirdest weeks of my entire life. Going in one day from 45C in Mexico to 45F in Albuquerque, a GIANT PINK SNAKE, a doppelganger, rain, snow, sleet, hail, and sunshine all in one day in one place, a creepily large number of unusual ravens, and a long-lost older brother, all in less than a week.

Trouble on the Snake

Trouble on the Snake: Estimated cost, about $1000 or more. Idaho was not treating me kindly. #TMLRT2019 #TMLRT #RoadTrip #Travel #Camping #Bound4DaCity #ProblemsGalore #WhatNext #GottaLaughAboutItTho

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]The Snake River was gorgeous, and had given me a stunning sunset and a gorgeous moonset, and I was looking forward to resting there for a few days, reading a book, shooting some wildlife.

My second morning there, I needed to run into town and get some supplies, including some coolant for Gypsy. She’d been leaking a bit, and I was planning to have her…

Sunset on the Snake

Sunset on the Snake: The dam made for a very pretty sunset. #TMLRT2019 #TMLRT #Sunset #Idaho #SnakeRiver #SwanFalls #Travel #Camping #RoadTrip

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]When I finally left Seattle, I headed east. I had been hoping to make a run to Vancouver, BC to see some friends, and then on to Alaska. But with Woodhull on the calendar breathing down my neck, I didn’t feel comfortable with the amount of time I’d have to take to do it.

It turns out it was a very good thing I didn’t attempt the long drive to Alaska…

Bawdy Storytelling

Bawdy Storytelling: It was a great show, with wonderful stories, and I'm so glad I finally got to go see it live. #TMLRT2019 #TMLRT #RoadTrip #Camping #Events #Photography #Travel #Surprises #Fanboy @DixieDLT @Bawdy

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]While I was in Seattle, I finally got to see Bawdy Storytelling live. I’d finally gotten to meet Dixie at Sex Geek Summer Camp, but I hadn’t planned to be in Seattle when the show was there. It was just a happy accident.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image media=”79179″ caption=”yes” media_lightbox=”yes” media_width_percent=”100″ border=”yes”…
