So a few here know that I'm finally doing my permanent move from Miami to LA. I have been spending most of my time over there already, but now I'm finally giving up my place in Miami, taking everything I have, including cars and dog.

Why do I bore you with this? Well, I'm going to take a road trip as I move from South Florida to California. Just me and my dog. I figured its as good as an opportunity as ever to do this, as I have also no rush to get to LA when I leave here after the new year.

The tentative plan I have is that I will go by Jacksonville, New Orleans, Austin, San Antonio, Houston, El Paso, Phoenix, Los Angeles. That may change a bit, but its what I have decided so far. I will do this in one, two, three weeks... whatever it takes me to do it and enjoy it.

Point then is, anybody here in these cities or towns nearby? I know RegularKarate is in Austin, and would love to have a drink/coffee with him and anybody else along the way. I'm also a tourist in most of these places so tips or suggestions are appreciated.

That's all :)

I'll have a Laker T-shirt ready when you finally get here.  :yabbse-wink:

Either we have no Xixaxers in Middle America or you guys are a bunch of fuckos.

Anyhow, Mac, it will take some time until I wear the Lakers jersey but at least the Lakers were my favorite team when I was growing up before I moved to Miami. Magic Johnson and Shaq are my idols. I still favor the Lakers over any other team for the Finals this year. But after the ass-whooping we gave the Lakers last week, I think I'll stick around with my boys :)

Will definitely go to the games often, so if you are into that we'll go.

Depending on when you leave, I may be in Austin - let me know! Also, I'd advise skipping Phoenix (boring) but going to Albuquerque (cool!) en route to LA....

Phoenix is definitely crap.

That road trip sounds really excellent!  I definitely would have met up with you if I lived in one of those places.  I'd be jealous if I weren't traveling around Europe.  Have a great time and all the best in L.A.

Definitely hit me up when you get near Austin.  We can get a drink.

RK, will do.

GBoy, not sure of the dates but will let you know. If not I will see you in LA anyways.

Should be a fun trip. Also I hope I will use some of the time to write during my stops, get some inspiration from the road :)
