I just posted this to my Facebook page but thought I would share with all of you guys as well. Tomorrow, I’m heading to California on a road trip. If anyone is along the northern or central coast of California and wants to meet up, let me know.

My adventure with poodle Susie begins tomorrow. I am so excited. What could go wrong with:

-1970 VW Westy Bus, outfitted for camping, with plates saying OLD BUS
-Standard Poodle - Susie
-53 year old man looking for himself in between life stages - Me, aka Pocket Man
-up and down coast of California or wherever I end up (Vegas?) - Destination Unknown
-no itinerary - WTF
-no budget - you heard me. I will be staying in both $50/night hotels or camping then in a $500+ hotel, if it suits me
-no end date - at least 2 weeks
-no hotel reservations - where should I stay?
-basically, no plans - YEP! I can't wait.

Anything could and will likely happen.

I hope to learn a lot about myself and the world around me too.

Follow along, although not sure if I will go off grid for portions of it. WIll be livestreaming on Root for Poodle Margaux's channel, so subscribe there if you want all the updates.

Peace Out....

I was working on my Cabin this weekend and on my way home this Old Chap was hitch hiking so I turned around to pick him up (something I never do) I pull over and he gets in and ask where he would like to go and of coarse it's 40 miles out of my way but I said it's your lucky day. So I asked why he was thumbing and said he had just had a fight with wife (and walked 1.5 miles to Hwy 70). So I asked how long have you been married? He said 10 DAYS! So after a large chuckle I asked if this was his 1st marriage and he said Oo no the 1st lasted 58 years. He's 82 years old and his 1st wife had passed a couple of years ago and he was lonely :( Come to find out he is a retired Highway Patrolman and a really good guy. I had a Great time talking with him!
So Scott if you see someone thumbing a ride and they look clean you may want to have some company for a few miles!
PS My poodles enjoyed him as well!
