Eastward Ho! The Grand Finale

I’ve been eastward ho-ing on this blog for ages, it seems. A nice parallel to my ever-winding trip itself. I truly can’t put into words (or video) the impact this road trip had and still affects on my life. From Vegas to Chicago to Pennsylvania and everything in between, my appetite for new and nostalgic […]

Eastward Ho! Pennsylvania Pride

I grew up in eastern Pennsylvania before moving to Georgia at 12 before moving to California at 23. Pennsylvania always comes to mind whenever I think of my earthly “home,” and yet the western part of this great state had always been such a mystery. Until this trip occurred, that is. I entered PA through the […]

Eastward Ho! Chicago at Night

Last time, I chronicled my eastward trek from Omaha to Milwaukee. I didn’t film much in Milwaukee because, well, I was pretty emotional. In this next chapter of my journey, I elaborate on my Milwaukee angst. After 24 hours in Milwaukee, I hit the road at night and drove south toward Chicago. I’d had no […]

Milwaukee Paradise

Several months ago I reentered Milwaukee a year removed from the most life-changing summer of my life. Midway through the summer I blogged about that heavy drive into the city; here now is the continuation of that tale, recounting my 24 hours back in sweet Milwaukee. After parking on all too familiar Logan Street I […]

Eastward Ho! Milwaukee Dread

Last time on Eastward Ho, I lost approximately 8 years of my life lost in the boredom desert of Nebraska. BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE. In this episode, I reach the Nebraska/Iowa border and say hey to the city of Omaha. And then I quickly skedaddle out of there, zooming across Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin en […]

Eastward Ho! Rocky Rockin’ Nebraska

Eastward Ho was the greatest solo venture of my life. I’m only halfway through posting my video recaps, as the fun was just getting started with my next chapter. Nebraska was awesome! So many exciting roadside attractions! Thrilling adventure around every turn! Beautiful scenery surrounding you! I’m just kidding, Nebraska was horrible. BUT THAT DOESN’T […]

Eastward Ho! Introducing Denver, Starring Harrison Ford

As I transition from 24/7 camp-life to the “real world” again, I’m posting videos from my eastward trek across America last May. I’ve already posted about Las Vegas, and then again. Last time, I was in Utah where I admired rocks shaped like shoes and Mormon forts. Up today comes my brief stop in Denver, […]

Eastward Ho! Utah, Metah, Wealltah

For the next week or two I’m posting videos from my May eastward trek across America. I’ve already posted about my stay in Las Vegas, and then because there was so much absurd glitziness to absorb, I posted another Vegas video. Alas, eventually I had to leave my sin behind in Sin City. That brought […]

Eastward Ho! Searching Vegas, the Sequel

In my last Eastward Ho chronicle, I found myself on a desperate search for Subway in the heart of Las Vegas. And while I eventually found said Subway only to eat dinner at Panda Express instead, I realized I could find anything in this city. So I soon began another search. This one held slightly […]

Eastward Ho! Hungry in Vegas

As I continue recuperating and recharging from an exhaustive summer at camp, I’m excited to FINALLY start posting the videos of my epic eastward road trip from California to the east coast. Such a life-changing trip; I’m forever grateful. Up first for Eastward Ho is a stop in Las Vegas, the first of two videos […]

Eastward Ho! THE MOVIE

Now that I’m back home in Georgia, recuperating from a draining yet life-changing summer at camp, I thought I’d finally get around to uploading those countless videos from my spring trek across America: “Eastward Ho,” as I’ve liked to call it. Or just EH for short. But I promise this trip was anything but “eh.” […]

Eastward Ho: Milwaukee Melee

I recently drove across the country to reach my summer camp destination on the east coast. What follows is one of several real-life wandering stories from my incredible “Eastward Ho” adventure. Before I can talk about what I actually did upon my return to Milwaukee, I must first explain the magnitude of my initial arrival. […]

Eastward Ho: 30 Minutes in Chicago

I recently drove across the country to reach my summer camp location on the east coast. What follows is one of several real-life wandering stories from my incredible “Eastward Ho” adventure. I’d thought about just passing by. It was already dark and getting kinda late. I had 500 miles to travel the next day and […]
