Sunday on a beautiful summer's eve in the south, it doesn't get much better when you hear the sounds of the cicadas all around you, disturbed only slightly by the hum of the air conditioner that is keeping our rolling home cool.
 Its hard for me to keep up with all I want to write about, I talked a lot about our No Agenda meetup on today's show, but I'd like to reiterate how wonderful its been meeting so many of the producers of the show, learning about their lives, how they found us and why they listen. I'm happy to report that we have an overwhelming majority of folks in these parts who have one form of security clearance or another. I probaby heard more than I should, but I'm proud to be associated with people who are have clear thoughts and tremendous skills. Its good to know that the iron fist that appears clad around the human resources of Gitmo Nation has a soft palm.
Our hosts, the Baroness and Mr Smith have been so wonderful. Besides allowing us the use of their RV for the next 5 weeks, they really helped us get settled, prepared and comfortable for this tremendous journey.
Tomorrow we plan on leaving early, headed further south. Ms. Micky has completely assumed the duties of coordinating with producers in each state, North Carolina is next. Its hard deciding where to go, but we also want to get off the beaten track when possible, so we've opted for Ashville as our next stop. We won't be there until tuesday, so the plan is to find something halfway for our overnight. Since the drive will take us through the Shenandoah Valley, I'm sure we'll have a great nature adventure.
I'm woefully behind on email and news articles, typical that I didn't think about how much I actually compile in between shows, but I hope to catch up on the 3G connection while Ms Micky has the wheel.
 Plans plans plans.... I need to resurrect Daily Source Code old style, with some talk, since that is much more my medium than writing, and I finally hope to document my mobile setup. It's really performing beautifully in the RV, and I know a lot of people want to know how it's all hooked up and connected. I warn you in advance, it involves gaffers tape... The toilet in the rig has a sticky handle, if you don't jiggle it after flushing it will eventually overflow into the rig. Luckily that's clean water, but still.
Micky is maintaining a facebook page of the trip. I know, it's a travesty, but probably handy for some. I continue to be a lone wolf, hosting on my own infrastructure. The tour site can be found at HotPockets2008.com
