Made it back to Rhode Island this evening, van broke down numerous times, got stuck in oklahoma and pennsylvania for a bit, mom showed her disappointment in my life decisions (traveling instead of being rich), dad gave me a bunch of tools to make more cool ****, girlfriend cried a lot, but we made it back home. Hopefully be seeing you in the water. If anyone come across an old white dodge van with faint verizon markings and utah plates feel free to knock and see if im home, we could enjoy a beer. If I'm not, please dont try to steal my stuff cause my dog will rip your arms off and I dont feel like repainting the van.
Welcome to New England brah! The next chapter of your life will be full of adventure. Be sure to plant your surf and life banners firmly in the Rhodey soil. Congrats on completing the trip.
Thanks for the welcome spic, I have lived here once before and have already seeded my banners deep in the rocky soil, returning now to reap the benefits of not being a 100% dirtbag
Welcome back dude. Happy to hear you made it with the van (and relationship?) intact. Alas, girlfriend tears make me shudder with disdain. Every time they cry I just want to shake some sense into them. Unless there's exposed bone, a tragic croaking, or a 5+ year sentence, there's no excuse for tears. There's no crying in baseball! Or surfing!! Or being a drifter! The great thing about the dirtbag experience is that you get to reap the benefits forever. May the banners be with you my friend. May the banners be with you.
Slashdog, I hope you haven't given birth to any people like Roy has. If so, it would be unfortunate if those infants cried in your presence. surfingwasteland, or SWL for short, did you wake up today with all the things in your van? Hope so brah. Your territory is like a wetty - piss in it and others will stay away. Oh wait, strike that from the record. Per order of SB, I can't comment on wettys til I've been surfing for 3+ years.
