I'm fleshing out plans for my summer road trip this year: through the northern High Plains through the Great Divide clear to the beaches of the Pacific Northwest.

That feeling when your summer vacation plans consist of making for North Dakota like a Nazgûl, and then appearing at Cape Flattery like the Flying Dutchman...

New class divide just dropped: are you used to year-round 60° and walkability, or 0° winters, 100° summers, and 100-mile commutes?

@UnconventionalEmma I guess I'm an oddity on this one, I actually like traveling, even as I am indeed autistic. I can't tolerate public transit well so, I drive, and my food sensory issues with allergies make it so the restaurant choices sometimes get so limited as to become the grocery store & eat in the hotel/motel/cabin or at the park options....but I still very much enjoy it. #Travel #RoadTrips #ActuallyAutistic

Book review…
A short piece, more an appreciation than a review of John Steinbeck’s literary classic, Travels With Charlie.
Steinbeck is best known for his novelistic portrayal of the environmental refugees fleeing America’s dustbowl of the 1930s and their struggle to find a new start in California. That was Grapes of Wrath. The book is an example of how fiction can reveal truths about a society and a time that people live in.
Travels With Charlie is different. It is a travel story, a road story, a journey through a different land. This is a good read. Pour a wine, put your feet up, open the book and journey with Steinbeck along the byways of America.

ON THE ROAD… in Tasmania…
Black swans graze on grasses on the shore of Lake Dulverton.
Stop off at the lake on your journeys north and south along Tasmania's Midlands Highway and you are likely to be introduced to these birds that hiss at you when they think you are too close.

This is so true its sad. Europeans on a road trip: we've been driving for forty five minutes, let's take a rest.
Americans: we've been going ten hours with no break and we're still in Texas. The cows are speaking in tongues and there's eyes in the tumbleweed. We cannot get out. We cannot get out. #funny #memes #Travel #RoadTrips #AmericansVsEuropeans

STORIES OF THE ROAD…
It is when you return to a place after a long absense that you notice how much it has changed.
This is a story about that.

In some lighter news. I admit I love roadside attractions and such.
BY ROAD & TRACK…
Saw this Kia converted into a minicamper yesterday.
I spent weeks on a Tasmsnian roadtrip in one of these some years ago, camping at caravan parks and free camping. Found it quite okay for that if you are a minimalist traveller. Had a kitchen box in the back, an awning on the side like the vehicle in the photo, a cargo pod on the roof.
Have you travelled on one of these? How did you find it?

My experience is that for long journeys it is an issue. Friends described stressful and delayed #roadtrips with a desire to drive longer they were able to. Would replaceable #h2 cartridges require less infrastructure (Like #swappable #lpg ) ? Its all academic - I'm just musing
