Ok, so i made a new blog yesterday and posted the following to it; but then I realized that the people following this blog wouldn't be following the new one...So I'm keeping it all here (sorry for the double post today) here's what I wrote yesterday;


We left from home 5 days ago. It was a rough first day. On the road at 5:30 am. We arrived in Kentucky around 3 pm with enough time to sound check and play our first set at Anvil Fest (we played twice that night). We put our last dollar into the gas guzzling tank and arrived on empty, but arrived no less. Only a couple things fell off the RV on the way, nothing major. It was our first long trip in the 1990 RV that God miraculously provided for us.

We couldn't get financing for an RV, and Victoria really wanted one from the 1990's. So we prayed. One day I sat at the computer and asked God to provide one from the 90's, and that the guy would just take what we had. The next day we bought this one -- we gave him 1400 cash and victoria's old 220k+ miles car that we toured in last year. It was less than half his asking price, and it was by far the cheapest 90's RV we could find anywhere.

The power cord got melted from the heat on the day of Anvil Fest while it was plugged in. We thought we would no longer be able to plug in and have power, but it worked out okay (thankfully!). And the mysterious recurring burning smell that keeps coming from the inside of the RV when we drive has mostly gone away. Threw away a moldy bord from under Victoria's bed, aaaaand we have a slight leakage from one of the pipes...a dirty water pipe. It's just a very small, very slow drip, but I still need to fix it.

Made some awesome friends at Anvil Fest, and have a 5 day layover until we have to be in Batesville, MS for our World Rejects Tour event (it was supposed to be a two month tour, but lots of things went wrong...).

Poop tank is clogged and most of it wouldn't come out when we tried to dump it, and we've spent the past couple days camping out in parking lots. We love Wal-Mart =]

God has graciously provided enough gas money for us to make it to Mississippi tomorrow (at least I think we'll have enough). We've been eating lots of cold Ramen Noodles and drinking warm peiasure's that my mom gave us (at least I have been). We love being on the road again and are excited for everything that comes next!!!
