Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

A Look Back at 2008

Just catching up with the last of my journal for the year.

In 2008, we visited 106 new NTN sites, a new record for us. They were in Wisconsin (2), Illinois (25), Missouri (11), Mississippi (10), Alabama (10), Florida (18), Ohio (11), Tennessee (4), North Carolina (8), Kentucky (3), Indiana (3), and South Carolina (10).

The biggest group came in Feb-March on out "Search for the Warmth" trip down to the Gulf Coast, where we stopped at 57 places in 16 days. We also added 19 more in a 14 day trip September to October to NC, SC, and Tennessee (cumulating with the NIU-Tennessee football game).

Whenever on the road, we look up the sites and try to stop at as many as we can. That involves a lot of riding around and looking for the places as sometimes we have wrong addresses or they aren't on a major road. Lots of stops at gas stations for directions. Sometimes, we just give up.

Just Looking Back. --RoadDog
