Good morning! I wanted to upload some pictures in my awesome hotel room last night but Motel 6 charged $3 for Internet and I would have had to walk ALL the way around the building to the front desk for an access card.

Glad you made it
Very nice introduction. Good pics and commentary too. Keep in mind, the farther away you get from the NYC metro area, the less meaning "open 24 hours" has. But you're learning that, I suppose. Godspeed Matt Paz!

Matt, great first entry! I was laughing at your comment about the WV guys staring at you from the convenience store. That's WV for you...KY and TN coming up huh? Send our love and greeting to Evan and Jack :)) I know you are going to love Nashville. If you get a chance, visit the Pantheon, it is in the Vanderbilt area (Vanderbilt University). It's a full-scale replica of the Greek temple. Looking forward reading more of your blog as your trip continues. As always be safe. See you in NEW ORLEANS!!!

Go Moondoggie!
Your entries are so descriptive, I feel like I'm in the backseat with you. Sounds like you're having the perfect trip, just like you planned. But really...where are the people?? I see no one on any streets! Love the history lessons, and the music selections. Keep us posted on any human contact ( besides the homeless). Luv Aunt Nina
