Reposting about roadtrips

19:51, 22 May 2009

There was a missed post from feburary, it didn't seem to post, probably because i suspect i was trying to bug test the live-journal interface (doesn't allow i-frames)...

I need to write something to fix this in an upcoming patch for the software.

So here is the reposted article.

This is the third attempt at writing this entry, since safari has been logging me out midway through writing.

I was thinking about how i really want to do a proper road trip at some point, and while i don't have the time right now, i thought i'd make a rough plan with the help of the Great and Powerful Google.

After working out i'd like to head to San Francisco and chose places i'd like to visit along the way, this is what it gave me.

Admittedly its nearly all southern places, but then i can always do a northern road trip in the future :)

I told google to avoid all highways, since it means i can see the little places as well as the big places, which is part of the reason for the trip.

I'd want to stay in each of the places on my list, so this would be about a 3 week trip, so not really practical on the amount of holiday i'm given... maybe i could work this into the idea of being a roving developer...

Aside from the time however i'm more concerned about the carbon footprint such a trip woud generate. If i took my current car, thats about 250 gallons of gas and thats being optimistic... so i'd want a carbon neutral car... anyone mind lending me their Tesla?

Realistically tho, until the technology allows me to do this trip without burning huge amounts of carbon fuels, i'm going to have to wait at least a few years...but when the car is available, i'll be heading to San Francisco... anybody want to come with?

However given i'd probably want to get back to where i started, i'd probably do the extra special see as much as humanly possible trip, which would be something like this...

For those of you wondering about spokane, i'm still waiting for my breakfast in spokane from 4 years ago...

So i'd probably end up needing a bit more time for this trip... still i'd love to do something like this... roll on fuel cell green supplied cars :)
