Clarksville, Tennessee

May 25–26, 2022

On the way from Memphis to Nashville, I stopped in Clarksville to have dinner with Lorilee Rager, another grad school friend and one of those truly magical people who combines wisdom, earthiness, beauty, and sass and wins over everyone she meets. (Check out her podcast, Ground & Gratitude, if you want to fall in love with her too.) It was only supposed to be a dinner date at Kohana Sushi & Ramen, but Lorilee offered me her guest room and welcomed the dogs to share Emma’s (her adorable Frenchie’s) abundant toys. I also got to meet her two teenage boys, Will and Luke, total charmers who give teenagers a good name. Lastly, in case you were wondering, yes, this is the Clarksville The Monkees sang about. You’re welcome.


Greetings

About Me

I’m a graphic designer, musician, and editor whose job went remote in March 2020. In mid-2021, I sold my house, bought a camper, and decided to hit the road with my two dogs. My homebase is Vermont, and I’ll return eventually, but for now I’m going mobile.
About My Camper

For the first few months of my trip, I was driving Pierogi, a 2014 Toyota Tacoma, and pulling Donna, a 2021 Sun-Lite Classic 16BH camper. Partway through the trip, though, I realized I love this life and wanted to up my game, so I traded in my sweet little setup for a 2022 Thor Sequence camper van, Vincent Van Go(gh). Less in the way of vintage charm, but he rides sooooo fine.
