In this livestream I went over the path of a 4 week roadtrip in October 2024. The road trip started in Temecula, CA and went as far southwest as El Campo Texas and as far North West as Port Angeles, WA before heading home to Temecula, CA. Logged 6340 miles on my rental vehicle.
I wasn't able to cover all of the information I would like to share about Ryan and his business so a future YouTube Video covering my whole visit with him and several other videos of other people I visited will be released in a Road Trip 2024 Playlist in the future.
Places and people I visited along the route:
➡️ Lordsburg, NM (overnight hotel stay)
➡️ Ft. Stockton, Texas (hotel stay and visited the old Fort)
➡️ April Wilkerson's Shop - The Woodshed and Divots in Canyon Lake, Texas
