The time has come for my first post-retirement road trip. This will be a short trip to Dallas, Texas and the Texas State Fair. From start to finish, I expect it to be a five or six day trip, depending on how it goes.

In actuality, it is a ‘test’ run. I want to see if I find any chances for adventure along the way, how I like sleeping in the car and if I can stay connected on the road via Wi-Fi. I am bringing my laptop so I can update this blog as I travel.

What happens from now on will depend to a large degree on what happens on this first trip.

My car is packed. The gas tank is full. The weather appears to be a non-issue and I am off!

See you on down the road.
