LD parked at Foscue Creek Park, Dec 12, 2007
I'm looking forward to Foscue
Yesterday's decision to head south for a while before I head to New Mexico is agreeing with me. I'm looking forward to spending time at Foscue Creek Park again. Looking through my photos from last year reminded me how much I enjoyed my stay there last year.
Kentucky has by far the cheapest gas I've encountered so far
Now there's something I thought I'd never see again. Cheap gas. Today I headed west on Kentucky's Blue Grass Parkway and then took US 31E and US 231 south as far as Shelbyville TN. That took me through Kentucky's cheap gas country where I paid $1.789. Twice. Kentucky must be raising revenue by some means other than through gasoline taxation.

Wal-Mart parking lot in Shelbyville TN
- I'm writing this bullet point from memory and I'm drawing a blank on this location. I can't remember if this is a good Wal-Mart for boondocking or not.
The Bottom Line
...if you’re young, dear God, don’t try to live the way your parents did. You don’t need three bedrooms, although a roof is nice. Get the hell outa Dodge and stir things up. Leave! Adapt! Believe in yourself! Have fun! The bottom line is, do I have shelter and enough to eat. Everything else is optional. EVERYTHING! There are no rules!!! Just keep it simple: get that first bit down, no matter how, and you can get creative with the rest.
