Well folks, last night I made it home from my road trip. I didn't take as many photos toward the end to be honest. But here's the short and skinny about how it went. After leaving Texas I went through Arkansas and stopped at Diamond Crater State Park. It was on my way there when the absolute worst thing happened. I saw a precious dog get hit and killed by a jeep. I was traumatized for like two days. Then I didn't find any diamonds at the park, just some calcite and volcanic ash. From there I went through Tennessee, stopping in Memphis, then Nashville, and Knoxville. The rest of the states I just passed through until I got to Rhode Island and Massachusetts. I stopped in Providence and walked around a little bit. The place has potential, just needs some cleaning up. Then in Mass, I stopped and visited my sister.

^ looking down a street in Providence. The brown building is very narrow which I thought was neat. There's a lot of old style architecture there that I like. I had lunch at a pizza place and I thought it was delicious.

^the Bass Pro in Memphis that ended up here at the bottom and not with the rest of the Memphis pics.
Overall it was a good trip with taking for three experience. It was exhausting at times. I don't think I'd ever do a road trip like this again, at least not by myself anyway. I'd like to say I've grown from it but, ehhh, maybe made me more comfortable sleeping in my car at random places but that's about it 😂
Thanks for following along, it made me feel somewhat part of the community, at least a tiny bit of it
