3/9 Evanston, WY to Monument, CO – 486 miles To see the entire road trip visit www.tanstaaflpress.com/tgrt/ I’m sure anyone who is really paying attention (maybe two of you), they are asking themselves, what does Amarillo have to do with your next stop in Dallas for AllCon? Not a thing other than it is on […]
3/8 Layton, UT – Evanston, WY 101 miles To see the entire road trip visit www.tanstaaflpress.com/tgrt/ I have a number of topics I want to chat about today, but as the title says, let’s start with the convention. SaltCon is a great little show for family and hardcore gamers. While I didn’t count, I’d estimate […]
3/5 Layton, UT 0 miles To see the entire road trip visit www.tanstaaflpress.com/tgrt/ If I was a poet, I think it would have been entitled from bad to verse. So I bedded down at a truck stop only to find that I couldn’t sleep. I’d wake up every couple of dozen seconds hacking a lung […]
3/4 Beaver, UT – Layton, UT 220 miles To see the entire road trip visit www.tanstaaflpress.com/tgrt/ So what do you write when you are sick? As little as possible. I went to bed with symptoms of a head-cold I’m sure I received from one of my hosts last weekend in Las Vegas. Oh, not his […]
3/3 Las Vegas, NV – Beaver, UT 439 miles To see the entire road trip visit www.tanstaaflpress.com/tgrt/ After one final day of success at the poker tables (split top place at a small tournament to the tune of $837) I was finally on my way from SLC. However, I brought along a passenger. Not a […]
2/25-3/1 Las Vegas, NV – 0 miles To see the entire road trip visit www.tanstaaflpress.com/tgrt/ Well, time to put Dice Tower West to bed. Four days of gaming and marketing (and yes, I got to play a few games). Lots of new games being debuted at the convention. DTW is very much a gaming convention […]
TGRT: That Weighs HOW MUCH??? 2/25/20 Las Vegas, NV – 0 miles To see the entire road trip visit www.tanstaaflpress.com/tgrt/ After winning $500 from my fellow poker players yesterday, today I’m sitting here catching up on things while my friend is at work (I remember those days). One of those dreams is possibly trading the […]
2/23/20 Barstow, CA to Las Vegas, NV – 156 miles To see the entire road trip visit www.tanstaaflpress.com/tgrt/ So there may be some derision about me stopping this short of Vegas, but on a short night of sleep, touristing, and that I tire easily, I found the stop quite important. I initially intended just to […]
2/22/20 Castaic, CA to Barstow, CA 163 miles To see the entire trip go to www.tanstaaflpress.com/tgrt/ So, sleeping right next to the freeway is a jarring and not very restful experience. I managed to get a few more hours sleep but not quite enough to get through the entire day. I did write fifteen hundred […]
La Grange, CA to Northridge, CA – 286 Miles + 100 local miles To read the entire trip see www.tanstaaflpress.com/tgrt The trip south was quite enjoyable. Not only that but I was averaging about 20MPG…(much more than any other point in the trip as 15 is nominal) until I reached the Grapevine. For those of […]
