Keep on Truckin'
I find quite remarkable that Blackie (my Isuzu Rodeo) has completed her third 3,000+ mile road trip in nearly 3 years. That's 6,000+ highway miles more than what I expected when I got her. How much does she have left? I don't know. But she's far exceeded my expectations. She makes me SO proud. Kudo's to you Blackie. Kudo's to you... Even if you don't have any brakes left.
Road Kill
If you ever find yourself driving through Northern Arizona, I suggest taking Route 66. And when you come to Seligman, Az., I recommend stopping in at the Roadkill Cafe. It is well worth the stop.

Challenge to Viewers and Flannel Friends
Have you seen the Valentines Day special? Well if you haven't watch it. You will notice we are starting a cotten line of clothing for the non-flannel wearing person. We are coming up with saying we can put on the T-Shirts or "cotton wear" that will help entice people to become flannel wearers and experience the goodness of wearing flannel.
Do you have a slogan you think would be great for the line? Submit it and the best one could win a free T-Shirt.

Ode to the Flannel
Roots from the ancient
mystical forest
Rich in lore and legend
The flannel makes it’s home
amongst us
And is friends with the creatures
of the earth.
It comes from the dwindling
Flannel Forests
The magical woods of Europe
To make its home
In our bedrooms and stores
And to give us strength to work
The flannel is soft
To the touch of our skin
But strong like the mighty oak
It comes in a myriad of
Unique designs--
Solid, checkered, and plaid.
The flannel stands
As a proud, valiant symbol
Of the hardworking American way
So stand and salute
The freedom of flannel
And long live the flannel today.

Traveling Tips
For anyone taking a long road trip with a friend, cousin, spouse… or brother, there are a few things you should keep in mind.
1) If you’re going to blog your trip, make sure you have a D/C to A/C power converter BEFORE you start the trip (and if you're going to use video, a firewire cable too).
2) Have a plan for decision making, again, BEFORE you start on your trip. Otherwise, neither of you will be able to decide when to eat or where to stop. I don't care. What do you want? It doesn't matter to me. Me either.
3) If you’re traveling in cold weather such that you have to keep the windows up and the heater on, make sure it’s been AT LEAST 24 hours since your traveling companion has eaten beans and/or chili.

Yazoo City
I never would have thought, nor could my imagination ever have concieved... well, maybe it could have, but as we were through Mississippi, lo and behold, there was a big green sign that read "Yazoo City 14." The name makes me think of two things: 1) Yoohoo chocolate milk and 2) a kazoo.
Hhmmm... if only I had a kazoo to play while driving.
I'm thirsty, though. Is anyone else thirsty too?

More Than Just a Road Trip
There is more to it than just a road trip. We are making history introducing our new clothing line of Flanel wear. Not just any flanel wear, it is Eco-Flanel Friendly. Bring back the flannel and help save the Flannel Forests.
Find out more in the 1st Episode installment - coming tomorrow. Watch for it.

The Future Looks Bright
DAY 1.
Beautiful sunny weather.
As I write it is raining. I did some research earlier which told me there were possible WiFi hotspots along the way. I don't know what a WiFi hotspot is. But Jared, who seems to have all the contacts, was able to pull some strings and get us wireless internet access at all McDonald's restaurants. Between his people-phone-in-road-to-the-fashion-business skills and my flannel fashion designer skills, I think we are going to be a big hit when we get to Hollywood. Look for our new line of flannel clothes at the next Oscars.

5 Days and Support
Hey all fans,
We are trying some fun stuff here on this project. We will be attempting to make updates and episode posts while on the road, it should prove to be a very interesting and interactive experience. So you know a little bit about the "cast." Stephen Isham has been working with Campus Crusade for Christ the past year in Florida and is heading back to California to raise support for another term with them. Jared Isham is an independent filmmaker in Southern California who has completed his first feature film entitled Bounty and is trying to sell it to begin paying off his investment ASAP. Needless to say neither are rich and will most likely be eating canned beans and camping on the side of the road the whole trip, and Lord willing no car problems.
So guess what, you can help us at least cover the gas to get home. Donate to our Gas fund so we can get home.
