Sash and I do that often, going into non-chain places, and asking the server for something you can't get anywhere else. It'll cost you more money to eat this way, but then again, I can get buy cold cuts at any grocery store anywhere.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-41485617500587932372013-07-12T17:21:20.548-07:002013-07-12T17:21:20.548-07:00Exactly how many covert pictures did you take of t...Exactly how many covert pictures did you take of the girls in the tent next door?<br /><br />No wait, I don't wanna know. <br /><br />Hope you had another good day and stopped to eat some yummy food.Trobairitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453398807198746434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-27438492294033350372013-07-12T16:39:58.156-07:002013-07-12T16:39:58.156-07:00Funny, on a long trip I don't eat big either, ...Funny, on a long trip I don't eat big either, but at the end of the day...

Fruit is nature's fast food and will help rehydrate you without making you drowsy. Try apples/prepackaged slices, grapes, bananas, small/half watermelon, nectarines, peaches, cucumber, carrots, tomatoes or prepackaged salads. Be careful, mesh gear will also dehydrate you.<br /><br />You want to be in top form not only on a motorcycle but campground visits too. <br /> Troubadourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10567767701065756330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-49343711328453616112013-07-12T08:49:51.010-07:002013-07-12T08:49:51.010-07:00Bob, lots of good advice here.

You can even get some ready to go meals like sandwiches and salads and veggie trays. I may need to try the strap the tent on the back and let it dry routine today. Wicked storm overnight and am trying to decide rain delay day or not. You might need to think about taking a refresher break every hour ... it's something I always do.(Takes me three hours longer to get anywhere than it should, but I feel safer doing it - again, walk around in an air-conditioned Wally-mart, have a cold drink and chill out.)VStar Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13634216576989421497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-62115273883682491332013-07-12T06:08:36.761-07:002013-07-12T06:08:36.761-07:00Interesting day!

If not, get thee to a motel and get some good, solid sleep and a hot shower before starting out on the next leg of the journey! No shame in that.<br /><br />Hope this day goes as well as yesterday.

I too advocate the grocery store route for lunch. As fast as fast food and a much healthier selection. Plus it wouldn't be fried or grilled.<br /><br />Which stove did you bring on this trip? The MSR or the alchohol? I think that the alchohol stove would be pretty difficult to use on a windy day but the MSR should be a cinch to get going…<br /><br />Still envious...<br />RichardMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773834892715980735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-2030512214893537612013-07-11T20:50:46.554-07:002013-07-11T20:50:46.554-07:00Bob ... you're an inspiration to us all.

Jennifer & I like to grab a bun or two, along with some premium sliced deli meat (beef, turkey, ham) for lunch time stops on the go. Some fruit & juice and away you go. Healthy eating = more alert mind while cruising down the highway.Robert, the Reverendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14753891819725690234noreply@blogger.com
