We decided to take a walk to the local supermarket to see if we could find some food for dinner (we had a microwave at our disposal so we had slightly more options. Walking by the meat section, something caught our eye... Kosher hot dogs!!!! My dad ran across the street to the Family Dollar to find a disposable grill and I picked up some buns, mustard, soda and chips. We got back to the B&B to cook our dinner. We decided to set up shop in the parking lot across the street (the ground was mostly gravel so we weren't very concerned about starting a forest fire). The coals caught quickly and flames were shooting up in the air. We were grilling in no time! The only utensils we had were a fork and knife, but everything was working out really well. Suddenly, the Sheriff pulled up in his squad car. Our hearts skipped a beat as we feared he might confiscate the grill and hot dogs (this concerned me more than the thought of being arrested, my dad was worried more about being arrested). He asked what we were doing and we explained we were grilling hot dogs. He let out a big laugh as we offered him one (semi reluctantly) but he said "No thanks, but you guys be careful and have yourselves a good night." And that we did. We grilled as the sunset on lovely Jackson, LA and enjoyed our hot dogs in the B&B with some Coke Zero while watching TV.
Follow us as we cycle our way throughout the USA. While our ultimate objective is to see this beautiful country of ours, we hope that these trips will also be the perfect trip for father-son bonding, getting in shape, learning new things, experiencing America, and raising money for Folds of Honor. We are definitely psyched for these epic adventures, and thanks for coming along for the ride!
