Some think it’s Ann, but really “Crazy” is my middle name. Who else would, in the midst of a recession and having just gotten back in debt from a 2 month trip to SE Asia, take on a month-long journey BY CAR (hello, gas guzzler?) through the vast American West?
I guess it’s time to break the bank and spend it before the government spends it for me. After all, I’m not sure Uncle Sam and I have the same destinations in mind!
My trip starts in four days with a one-way ticket to VEGAS, and then goes…whichever way the wind takes me!
(Or, as one friend kindly pointed out: “The great American road trip may end up at a Denny’s in the desert 50 miles from Reno.”)
Only time (and money) will tell.
Pig says: “Feed me, don’t break me!”
I never listen to pigs. Even ones wearing lipstick.

Love this one and the pic is PERFECT! Come EAST young woman – you can stay for free in NYC!!!
You can also always come to Boston…
I found this piggy bank at an antique store in Seattle. Was tempted to buy it. Thanks for the invite to NYC. I might just take you up on it!
And, for a little beach time, you can always head over to West Seattle. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold. I remember saying something like “I feel a bit lightheaded; maybe you should drive…” And suddenly there was a terrible roar all around us and the sky was full of what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, which was going about a hundred miles an hour with the top down to Las Vegas. And a voice was screaming: “Holy Jesus! What are these goddamn animals?”!
Yes, absolutely. Follow ‘Fear and Loathing’ and see where it takes you – not!!
You’re a brave woman. But I’m sure you’ll get some awesome photos.
