Nude Blogging Time 0r Naked As Britney Speers On A Date


The weather outside is frightful, but my room is so delightful.


And since I've no place to go, lets get naked and let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

When I left Woodstock to go load up the dogs in Washington, GA, the weather was cold, but no wind. About 5:00 p.m. I left for my transport in clear weather. But Judy called and said it was starting to sleet and freeze…just 50 miles West of me - as the crow flies. It took her three hours to make the normal 45 minute drive home.

I had clear skies and no traffic all the way up, and didn’t run into any snow until I was about 100 miles South of Albany, NY.  On the way back I was in snow from NJ to VA. Lovely! PA was really messy. Here in VA my van’s rear-end was moving back and forth like Tyra Banks on the Runway. Kinda fun, but a little stressful at the same time.

But my room is warm, the shower was hot, and the bed feels great. Not gonna last long. Over 30 hours straight with only one 20 minute nap makes for a tired old man, too.

So I’ll catch ya later, Peeps.

I'm Home - For Now


I’m home…finally. But I have to go back next Thursday. The things I do for family. Anybody want a family? I’ve got one you can have…I’ll pay you to take’em.

This morning the sun was shining, but it was cold. I went out to the van to crank it up to let it run to defrost the windows, which had a foot of snow from the roof to the front bumper. To get to the door I had to walk in snow up to my knees - in sneakers.

I don’t know what possessed me to do it because I have never done it before when traveling in snowy weather. But I brought alone my window scraper with a brush on one side and the scraper on the other. There is no explaining brilliance.

I also had to shovel the three foot pile of snow in front of the van so that I could get out. I don’t shovel. I’m a stud, not a laborer. So I got it down to a foot high and drove over the damn thing.

The road heading over to I-81 was pack snow and some ice. Not too slippery. But I-81 was in great shape. The DOT had worked all night to get the highways cleared. And there was no traffic.

But on the way back I had to make a side trip to pick up a surgical light Dr. Amber bought online. So I pulled off I-77 into the Yadkin Gap in North Carolina. I followed the Yadkin River for a long way and was in some very beautiful country. Some snow on the ground, but still mountain valley beautiful.

But the important thing is, I’m home, the Saints just won the Super Bowl, and Judy and I are headed out to the Waffle House for a late dinner.

Thanks for all the well wishes, guys. It is comforting. And thank you to Travelodge for having free WiFi, too. Kept me from going nuttier than I already am.

I Donwanna Go!


I leave tomorrow for my monthly animal transport to New York.

This seems to be what I have to look forward to on most of the trip.

I am really fucking excited about it, too.

Can you picture the Enxyte Guy?

That‘s my smile when I think about this trip.

I tried to get out of it, but the snow birds who live in the stuff said it wasn’t too bad, and they have people lined up to receive the dogs and puppies when I get there. In other words, don’t be a pussy and come on up. I’m a pussy! I donwanna!

The only saving grace is, if I get stuck or snow bound, I have a van full of dogs to eat. I won’t starve.
