On March 27th, 2009 Kid Disco and I embarked on a 2 week drive across the country and back that most called crazy and a select few called awesome. We left San Diego at 6:30 AM on March 27th and drove to Mesa, AZ.
In Mesa, we were able to see the Cubs vs. White Sox in a pre-season game at Hohokam Park. The Cubs spanked the Sox in front of a sold out crowd!! After the game we met up with Brian LaFrance and Chase Granberry of AuthorityLabs.com for dinner at Bison Witches off Mill Avenue. We grabbed a few drinks after dinner and turned in early since we were planning on driving as far as possible the next day.
We spent the next two days driving from Arizona to Austin, TX with a stop to sleep in the middle of nowhere. In Austin we met up with some friends, including Kate Morris, for dinner with Drinks at The Continental Club after where CK, Elvis and I had a nice Eiffel Tower moment. We decided to spend another day in Austin to see more of the area. Kate told us about Lady Bird Lake which has a great jogging path so we were able to get in a run to burn off some of our road trip snacks!
That night for dinner we negated any benefit from our run by going to one of my favorite places in Texas, The County Line, where we had all you can eat BBQ. And we did eat all we could before they rolled us out of there.
After Austin we were on a mission to drive as much as possible each day to get to IM Spring Break in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. We drove through five states that day to get to Tallahassee, FL where we spent the night before driving the rest of the way to Ft. Lauderdale. We got settled in to our hotel at IM Spring Break and started the Spring Break festivities.
We’d like to thank a few of our sponsors for sponsoring the first part of our road trip: Los Angeles SEO Company RankLab Interactive, Internet Marketing Firm Primary Affect, MatterMidia and the Twitter white & yellow pages TweetFind. More to follow in my IM Spring Break Recap and IM Road Trip Recap Part Deux!
