We've finalized our plans. We will leave with an old friend of mine from Martha's Vineyard, who actually contacted me in response to changing my Facebook status to read, "looking for a ride down south from New York City to anywhere between Georgia and Texas." As a result, we'll be leaving on Monday around Noon and driving first to Arlington, where we'll be able to revisit the truckstop in Jessup, Maryland. Then, it's a ten hour drive down to Atlanta, Georgia where we'll have our first encounter with one of the famed I-40 corridor truckstops. Then we will travel to Dallas, Texas and explore the truckstops on the outskirts of the city, followed by El Paso, Texas and then to Tuscon, Arizona. By week's end, we should be in Los Angeles, and the Ontario truckstop; at every stage of the trip, we will be driving through the days and filming through the nights--remaining open to the possibility that the footage we are after could come at any moment. Wish us well, and keep checking the blog. Once we get out on the road, I will start taking stills to accompany the blog entries.

Peace and Love,
Dan
