Day 4 cross country movin!
Added 2022-09-17 17:51:51 +0000 UTCHowdy :) I’m 3.5 days into my cross country migration! VA to CA. I’m getting more excited the more miles I put down.
I only have a couple selfies to share for now. I’m absolutely exhausted. Can you see it in my face? Big drives are one of the hardest things for my hypermobile spine so it’s been a big push. I have 6 slipped discs which means my muscles spasm almost constantly and the sitting and driving for long periods doesn’t help. I have a system and don’t let it detract from my empowerment and excitement of being nomadic and free. For every hour or two I drive, I stop somewhere pretty to roll out my muscles, ice my back and neck, and lay down to reset. I end up getting to stop and see lots of things I wouldn’t normally spend any time with. But a 5 hour drive takes almost twice as long….
So I’m breaking this 40 hour drive up into 8 days and am reaching my halfway point in Colorado today! Hell yes. See y’all on the other side 😎
More soon to come. I can’t wait to be out in that vast arid space again. And romp around uninhibited. Aka butt naked. I’ll have two days to decompress in the Eastern Sierra before starting the 5 day Rugged Tour with the Venus de Tierra collective 🖤
