It's a 3,600 mile trip so I'll be about six days on the road. It's right diagonally across the USA from Nova Scotia.
Thats the way to put some miles on the clock - I'd love to do that trip - and to have a winter spot in the sun is such a great idea - I can just imagine driving right across the US in the Jag, that would be fine! _________________ Andrew Wood

It's quite a nice drive. You certainly see lots of different scenery. There are stretches where it isn't difficult to imagine the Dirty Thirties and the migration west. This time I'm going to Denver then down the east side of the Rockies to New Mexico then south west through Monument Valley to Page and The Grand Canyon. Then south and west to Yuma via Flagstaff and Phoenix. The trip is part of the gig. I've been doing it for seven years now.
Vincent, the place here is not so much concrete and brick. It is more rustic but any method to keep away from the snow shovel is good. I am very close to nature here. So relaxing.
Rustic, concrete and brick, on wheels, it doesn't matter. It keeps us away from the snow. I am close to nature too. In a few minutes I can be in the desert and it's amazing what you can find there. Enjoy life. It's for the living and I sure enjoy doing that.

I am sure I will get some backlash from it because someone won't like it but here goes............I am a naturist, have been since my teens. The thought in the U.S. very Victorian, but in the rest of the world, Europe, U.K., Scandinavia, Denmark, The Netherlands, much more common. _________________ A Lover Of Old Toys Great and Small.

Good on you, Nile, nothing wrong with that, if our country was a bit warmer I think I would be tempted as well. Thank you for sharing with us. _________________ Regards, Sandie.

Woke up at 5:30 AM could not get back to sleep, decided to go for a walk, so still; quiet, gentle breeze, palm trees swaying, said hello to the 'gator, took a shower, sat down at the computer, fixed a drink----- ahhhhhhhhh, will this ever become hum-drum?

I've got a bit of the picture here - walking up to an alligator with no trousers on - that takes some guts. _________________ Andrew Wood

Hahahahahaha. Great stuff. The gators are not big. They are only about 4 feet long. The story goes is that the adult mother brings her young from the lagoon I just found which is a bit more rustic, overgrown, no humans to scare the gators, and lets then grow up over here. When the gators reach a size that is pretty big, the state wildlife agency is called and they take him out. Then he goes to a preserve where he won't hurt anybody. I saw one we have and he is about just that......4 feet long. I was recently told by a more knowledgable chap that we have 4 gators in this lagoon. The bites can be nasty though even at 4 feet long. I would imagine they could easily snap off a finger. (or other parts) _________________ A Lover Of Old Toys Great and Small.
