I’m totally doing this after the next trip I take.
finally put this up on our company blog :-D
I got my inspiration from these postcards I picked up at the Petrified Forest Museum. They’re reproductions of WPA national park posters, originally produced between 1938 to 1941.
This isn’t A Good Company project, but back in March I did take a break from working to go on a solo road trip from LA to Texas, to visit a friend who lives in Sugarland.
I took a bunch of notes while traveling. In the beginning it was mostly a way to keep myself within budget, I wrote down how much I’m spending on gas, food, etc. (It worked actually, I stayed within my budget, though I would’ve been way under budget if I hadn’t gotten a “speeding” ticket for going 46mph in Sanderson, TX.)
But then I ended up taking more detailed notes on all kinds of stuff. So here it is, a little summary of what happened on my trip.
“Mario Brothers - BP Oil Edition” by Zero-Lives. Someone should create a sluggish, dirty remix of Super Mario Bros.’ underwater theme to go with this. Of course, that someone shouldn’t be me, as I’d prefer a chip artist with actual musical talent tackling this task.
Anyway, sorry to ruin your holiday with thoughts of dead Cheep-Cheeps washing up on the shore and Koopa Troopas flapping their oil-covered wings in vain as they struggle to fly. Enjoy your day off with barbecues, Memorial Day sales, and tributes to fallen soldiers.
