POWER TRIP PACKING GOLD

power trip

A power trip needs a goal.

It also needs a good packer.

This could be two weeks or two years.

But why go at all?

Because you’re going for the gold, as in golden memories.

Although gold is good.

So is a bad-ass prospecting tool.

POWER TRIP

If you’re one of those kind of travelers, you’ve got to hit the road.

This is slow in Idaho.

And this is the gold in the power trip.

John Steinbeck eat your heart out.

Travels with Ruby, the giant dog.

 I was out on the road late at night
I seen my pretty Alice in every headlight
Alice, Dallas Alice

I’ve been from Tucson to Tucumcari
Tehachapi to Tonapah
Driven every kind of rig that’s ever been made
Driven the back roads
So I wouldn’t get weighed
And if you give me weed, whites, and wine
And you show me a sign
I’ll be willin’… to be movin’
