38 Days....

Over the last few weeks, we have accomplished many things to help this journey become a trip of a lifetime. First off, Kyle, our 5th person is back in on the roadtrip. After some uncertainies, he decided to rejoin the Durango Drifters. We are glad to have him back. Next, Tricia and Amy took some time and made a remix youtube video of what is to come on our roadtrip. You can view it here: www.youtube.com/user/DurangoDrifters or under the "contact us" tab on our website. Yes, I know Amy's singing or rapping isn't the best and Tricia was maybe dancing a little too much but we appreciate their effort. Also, we have an Official Durango Drifters t-shirt for sale. It's $10 a shirt, and you can purchase it directly on our website under the "shop" tab, or from any member of the roadtrip team. Sizes are S,M,L, & XL. We thank you for your support. We took forever to decide the color of the shirt, but we decided to go with the website colors, and go with a Green t-shirt and White writing. I would like to thank Kyle for driving to Scranton, PA with me to order the t-shirts. We also made some minor adjustments to our itinerary, and so far 2 major changes. First, we decided to finish our trip camping in Outter Banks, NC for July 4th weekend. This will add a few days to the trip, but we plan to be home July 5th. Secondly, we are now leaving May 24th, and were heading right for Cedar Point Amusement Park. Thanks Kristina for the research in finding Cedar Point. We are very excited about this, as well as, leaving in 38 days.....


With only 38 days left until we leave for our for trip we have a few more goals to accomplish. As mention above, we want to sell as many shirts as possible. Also, we have to install the Lifebelt system in our Durango. A company, http://www.nobucklenostart.com/ , gave us a Lifebelt system to install. This device prevents the vehicle from starting unless the seatbelt is buckled. In return, our back window will be advertising there company.

There also has been many speculations that Uncle Jorge will be traveling the first 4 days with the Durango Drifters. Yes, thats Mr. Jorge Barriga himself! He plans on coming with us when we go to Wrigely Field, and than to visit Minneapolis, MN when the Yankees take on the Twins in the new ballpark. We will look forward to his company.

That's it for now! More to follow!
