Hello.

On April 1st (+/- 1 day or so) I will be making a loooong drive from Los Angeles to Dothan, Alabama.

Anyone need anything, or anyone transported along my route? (turts, torts, mazuri, random stuff, anything really.

Anyone want a visit from a fellow TFO member?

Anyone want to provide housing for a night for a fellow member/US Army soldier/biologist/software engineer/pilot ?

PM or Email me if you are interested.

Thanks
Cory

Maybe we should start a foodie travels for people on TF, and visit all of the great cooks on here.

Curiosity has got me what is the trip for? If you need a place to crash in the Phoenix area, let me know. If you come across any sulcatas that need a home feel free to transport them to me.

I am in the US Army, and I got accepted to Helicopter Flight school to fly Blackhawks. Training is for up to 2 years, so I want to have my car. So I am driving from my house, Los Angeles, to the US Army Aviation Headquarters, Fort Rucker, Alabama.

Yes I would love to make a stop in Phoenix. I will PM you my info. Thanks so much!

And I think I might be able to get some sulcatas for you. They will probably be males, but no promises, I have to make a few calls.

Thanks again!

I will definitely have to say brisket for sure.

This is soooo exciting!!! Now the food has become the highlight of the trip!!

Now I am actually looking forward to driving 2200 miles...lol! :)

Well I am staying on the 10 freeway the entire way. I would perfer just to make stops around that area. It is one of the most southern freeways/highways in the country that go from one end to the other.

Thank you so much! I look forward to coming up! I also can't wait to swap some stories from all the experiences everyone has been through.

Has anyone been through SERE school? I will be doing that this year...

Make sure to take lots of pics to share, so we can "meet" forum members too :)
I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot of pictures of food if this trip is anything like your Japan trip :p
