Garland has always called my stories "Cat Tells" since I tend to tell multiple stories at a time – I say I just remember details better!
Strange and Weird things we’ve seen on the road over the past four years! And a few surprises!
Our very first weeklong stay in 2021 was in Branson, MO. This was the first Walmart we’ve ever seen liquor sold. They had this pricy boy locked up.
Yes, that is $3,398.27These scary looking mannequins were on the roof of a abandoned chocolate shop in Branson. Maybe they use it at Halloween?Yes, adult beverages in a Drive-Thru in Kansas! They at least give them to you with the bags tied up!This was not in Seattle where Bloody Mary’s are famous or TX, where everything is bigger. This was in Kansas!Camping on Lake McConaughy in Nebraska, where a tractor will pull your RV out onto the beach at Martin Bay! It really is a gorgeous lake in Nebraska.Aliens in Ogallala, NEToadstool Geological Park in Harrison NEWalter Whites RV in Nebraska – IYKYKThe ONLY fluffy cow I’ll ever try to touch! Custer, South DakotaOur first Bison Jam – no petting! In Custer State Park.He posed for me! These guys were smaller than later ones we saw in Yellowstone.Bella wanted to see the Badlands in South Dakota! After a rough travel day, I found our closet had exploded! It would have lasted longer if there were enough screws installed to begin with! Also, we may have brought too many clothes! LOLWeird stuff on the side of the highway leaving South Dakota into Minnesota. Twin Harpists – just what you expect at an Irish Festival in La Crosse, WI – so much fun!Buchanan, Michigan scarecrows – for charities. OK, not quite as weird as I first thought! 🙂Oops – why are we at the GW Bridge in NY – what happened!?!?NEVER ever leave a trash bag out! The one on the ground, his tail is wagging and the other two up on the sofa are like, “what, we didn’t do anything”! “He stupid brother!”Texas is like Florida, you never know what you’ll see. Like a Mini in the City of Livingston’s police car pool!This was our first time! Conversation in New Mexico!The Road Runner in Las Cruces, NMThere were two wildfires appx 50 miles from us in Cottonwood, AZ. Our route to the next location was blocked for a day, so we ended up sleeping at our first gas station with big rigs. We’re tucked in beside the green truck.I was taking photos of the wild horses in Monument Valley – check out the creepy hiker. Didn’t see him till we looked at the pics. And now one else on the tour saw him!Someone roughing it in Valley of the Gods, UtahA swinging grill makes a good steak in Mexican Hat, UT.Saw the same “homemade” camper at Goulding’s Campground. Forest Gump’s stop. Where the speed limit reduces to 35, since so many people stop in the middle of the road…like I did! Cute pup in Canyonlands, UTWe see lots of people traveling with their cats around the country – this was in Colorado.Snow on Memorial Day in Park City, UtahWe are not used to seeing these kinds of signs! WyomingNot used to fences to “break up the snow” in our part of the country either! Moose in our campground at St. Mary’s at Glacier! Can you see the face in the mountain? Driving to Washington state. Trying to escape the fog in Oregon, we traveled further north…and got SNOW. What were we thinking?This was the 2nd week of snow. It was gorgeous though with all the pines.
We both agree the most awe-inspiring sight we have seen on our journey so far was Mount Shasta, in California. It was an overcast day and I was taking pics of the side of the road, with evidence of a past forest fire and we both looked up at the same time. It was like a diamond coming out of the clouds! Very unexpectantly. Just wow!
Right before seeing Mount ShastaThe pics don’t do it justice. It took our breaths away!These are Mount Shasta as we left that area.The second highest peak in CA.Yes this was a SIX door Prius in TN. LOLUntil we went full-time, we had no idea lots of campgrounds celebrate Christmas in July! I guess we’re killing grass – all across the US! We love our fence! Found out if you’re driving around a huge prison, they don’t allow photos! Oops! This “used” to be the world’s largest. Accord NY.Someone got creative! Clinton CTKennebunkport MaineDowntown Portland Maine 🙂Love the names in LAA favorite childhood treat! More cat travelers in TXI understand the “mouth” of the fish…. (blurry photo taken as we drove by!)…but this one is turned the wrong way! 🙂 These were in TN.Random cuteness! Cute tow (or toed, as we call it) vehicle tire cover! This is the MESSIEST sandwich but the BEST in my opinion. RO’s Barbecue in Gastonia, NC! Heaven to me! Bikers have a good sense of humor! 2nd favorite stop in Gastonia is Tony’s Ice CreamCute repurposing of satellites on the drive from Indiana to Iowa! Lets see how quick we can kill some more grass pups! We didn’t stop – if you know anything about this FL neighborhood, you get it! Sorry it’s blurry but I LOVE their tag line! Our new golf cart! LOLA neighbor in FL would come and stand like this – looking toward the sky, every day! I think he was waiting to be beamed up!ADULT ONLY content here!Aren’t they just the cutest! 🙂 I make friends everywhere! Our friends’ (Joyce and Steve) pups Maverick and Duncan. 🙂
