Life Is A Road Trip is on Hiatus until 2012

We’ve got some other things going on for the time being, but we’ll have our batteries recharged for a big trip in 2012.

Casa Del Popolo

Just a quick update …. pics only. I’m worded out.

sleepy bye-byes

Blizzzzzzarts …

After the concert we checked out a few places in our search for Spencer Krug. We ended up at Blizzarts even though there is probably no way they’d let him in with his metaphors.

We ended up hanging with a birthday party.   I’m going to pretend to not remember the rest:

the Rural Alberta Advantage @ il Motore

the RAA was our motivation for slogging the miles to Quebec in the dead of winter. Err, I guess technically very late autumn.
They’re awesome. I’d link you to some music of theirs, but I believe in your Google skills.

Yes, they have a bearded brown drummer. I thought I’d cornered the [...]

New Orleans – Night 1

It was a second visit for both of us to Pat O’Briens in New Orleans …

Humidity fogged Matt’s lens … Voodoo fountain – fire and water.

Pat O’Brien’s is famous for its Hurricane … a fruity concoction of rum, passion fruit, grenadine, lemon and lime … You’ll never catch me outside of NOLA with one of [...]

It looks like the oil’s gonna hit tomorrow …

BBQ 3: Pineapple Willy’s

Last night, in Charleston, I almost kept up with Matt’s seemingly endless capacity for barbecue. Alas, tonight, I was defeated and had to go with the fried chicken basket … I’m blaming it on the 30oz margarita. Anyway, Pineapple Willy’s produced some good ribs, meat melting off the bone, but the sauce was lacking [...]

Night Shots: Beach Bums, Fireworks, and the Burning Brown Man

We picked up some fireworks on the way through Georgia and thought we’d put them to good use on the beach. Our cab driver (not the one named Yoda — no I’m not kidding) let us know that fireworks + beach = jail, along with suggestions on how to use an M80 to deter [...]

Panama City Pictures, White Trash Omitted

Burn’s Alley, Charleston, SC

You know those vacations that you plan with your friends for weeks … every strip-club restaurant, every cougar haunt museum, every last detail … you’re doing it wrong. Seriously, just stop planning so much.

Well, I do say, Dr. Suess + William Shakespeare FTW.

When this is the sign for the bar you’re walking in, you’ve [...]
