SPOT GPS

Here is the link to my SPOT GPS shared page. It only shows information that I've sent in the last 7 days. So if it's empty it just means I haven't used it lately but I'm still OK.

One Hundred Grand

Today on my way through Utah the RV rolled over 100,000 miles!  It may not seem like a lot these days but it's a lot for a 1986.  I don't think most people drive their's very far.  For me on this trip so far its 21,760 since May 21, 2012.



It just happened that as it happened there was a rest area along the road so I pulled offer the let NiNa rest.



And just like in the John Denver song, "On The Road"

Back in 1958 we drove an old V8 and when itd gone a hundred thou we got out and pushed it a mile

We didnt know who we were, we didnt know what we did
We were just on the road

Headin down from Canada on a gravel road a mile from Montana
Then my Daddy read a sign and took us in the wrong direction
I asked my Daddy where are we goin, he said well just follow
Our nose, so I looked out the window and dreamed I was a cowboy

We didnt know who we were, we didnt know what we did
We were just on the road

I met a girl in a truck cafe, fell in love almost right away
Then the Mercury was ready to go and I had to leave her

Shoo-be-doo-be-doo-Sh-doo
Shoo-be-doo-be-doo-Sh-doo-Sh-doo

Go home said the man in the moon go home
Go home said the man in the moon go home

Because its gettinsorta late and Ill soon turn out my light
Go home said the man in the moon
Go home

We didnt know who we were, we didnt know what we did
We were just on the road

We didnt know who we were, we didnt know what we did
We were just a ridin on
We were just a ridin on the road


(except at 12,000 lbs plus 3,000 lbs of trailer I didn't get very far.  It was the thought that counts.


There are not to many interstates that are as dramatic as the section of I-70 between Selina and Green River, Utah.  110 miles of endless views and nothing else.
