Day 2 of the trip, PA to MO

The day started with me getting lost while getting out of Pittsburgh. The trip took me through 5 different states and ended with me stopping for the night on the outskirts of St. Louis. The car seemed to start having some problems with the gas gauge. Hopefully I will have that fixed soon. It kept showing that it was empty. I went a little over 600 miles for Day 2.

Day 1 – CT to PA, Road to AZ

Day 1 got off to a late start but I still managed to go about 450 miles and reach Pittsburgh, PA. I had planned on leaving very early on day 1 but I overslept and also I had trouble fitting everything into the car. What I really wanted to do was have all the electronics kept in the trunk where you wouldn’t be able to see them. This was a big challenge but I managed to fit everything in finally. The 1st day took me into CT, NY, NJ and also PA. PA was a very long and boring drive.

Arizona Here I Come! Road Trip Starts in the A.M.

Connecticut to Arizona Map




The countdown has almost hit the end. In about 12 hours I will start my journey cross country to the land they call Tempe, Arizona. The drive is a very long one. I should know, I’ve done the cross country thing 2 times already. The first 2 times I did the trip I had someone else in the car though. For this trip however I am going totally solo.
The trip from Connecticut to Arizona is around 2550 miles long. A few of the key places I will be passing through are Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Tulsa, Amarillo, and also Albuquerque. For this drive I plan on stopping a lot. Not to sleep but to browse around a few towns and of course there are those great roadside attractions in the middle of the country that are always interesting. One thing I will defiantly be doing is taking a lot of video. I’m going to try and capture as much of the trip as possible. During the night when I am at motels I will also try to broadcast with my webcam on Justin.tv. Of course I can’t promise that I will be able to broadcast. It all depends on if the motel/hotel has wifi. All together it should be a fun trip and I hope to share as much of it with all of you. Car is gassed up and ready to go! So lets go!
