Finding the Perfect Vehicle for Your Hobby

Many hobbies require travel time, storage, and a reliable vehicle. The thing about having a hobby is that it plays a big part in your life, you enjoy it, and you don’t want to give it up. If your hobby is refurbishing furniture, then you probably do quite a bit of traveling to garage sales, or swap meets to find those good deals. If you have a love for fishing, you probably do a lot of driving to find the best fishing holes like lakes, streams, or the oceans. If you hunt, you may also do quite a bit of traveling to different hunting grounds depending on what type of game you are hunting. Deer hunting can grow weary, and you might want to change it up a little bit by hog hunting or elk hunting. Now if you’re born and bred in Texas, you know that you have absolutely no problem finding wild hog, however, if you want to shoot something more substantial like elk you have to travel. Another hobby that many people may not think of, however, is very prevalent and has a large following is reenacting. There are many different types of reenacting, but the ones that have you do most of the traveling our military reenactments. World War I and World War II reenactments take place all over the country. Even the reenactors here in Texas have quite a ways to drive to each event. Texas regiments take part in events that are located all throughout Texas as well as Louisiana, Oklahoma, and New Mexico. The thing about reenacting is that it also requires a lot of gear. You don’t just take your own equipment, but you also carry all of your extra gear just in case there’s someone out there who doesn’t have something that they need to participate.

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America Over the years, Route 66 has provided travelers, dreamers, and renegades with an experience no other route can give. Established November 11, 1926, covered 2,448 miles and originally ran through eight states starting from Chicago, Ill to Santa Monica, CA and quickly began to be one of the most popular highways in America. It soon became known by other names such as The Mother Road, Will Rogers Highway, and was spotlighted in John Steinbeck’s classic novel The Grapes of Wrath. When The Great Depression hit in 1929 over 200,000 traveled to Californa seeking reprieve from The Dust Bowl and used The Mother Road to escape. Some traveled west with the promise of work. With barren land surrounding them, farmers and their families gathered essentials and traveled west in hopes of work. Towns, mom and pop businesses, and service stations along the highway survived The Great Depression by catering to travelers with supplies, fuel, and car parts. Res...
