Did anyone else play this game at summer camp? You’d all sit around a campfire and have to say all the items that were said before you and then add one of your own before passing it to the next sugared-up, marshmallow fiend? Except usually, you’d be going some place cool, like the moon or Jupiter.

Well, it’s for realz now, because we’re driving across country in 4 days. Wow, I just scared myself. 4 days!? Are you kidding me?!?
So help a brotha and sista out. What can we absolutely not forget to take on a 3,969 mile drive?? We promise to recite them all before adding our own travel necessity and passing it on ’round the campfire.

sun cream, a hat, WATER, (sun and heat are your ennemies- where are you going?), blankets and socks (cold is your ennemy), mosquitoe repellent (serious one, no friendly stuff- mosquitoe is your 3rd serious ennemy), your guitarre!! and the rest, you’ll survive without it!!

A small pillow for behind the lower back of the driver. Seriously necessary toward the end of a long, long day of driving.
Sweet tunes and podcasts, thats a lot of time you’re going to be driving. Lots of clothes you can layer so you don’t have to take 5 million bags of coats. Pillows and blankets fer sure. And the jewels, don’t forget the jewels, otherwise whats the point! =) Have sooooo much fun, can’t wait to read all about it!
Your best friend and laughter!
Do what William Least Heat Moon does and stick to the Blue Highways! Have a fabulous time!
