Which ways the Beach? Santa Maria to Austin Roadtrip Family Style

Followed this thread from the start. What a great trip and a great family!
This is what its all about! I dont want it to end either!

This gets my vote for thread of the year too!

 

agreed!

 

That is just freakin' awesome!!! What a great trip!!!!

 

Thanks for documenting. I love sharing this passion with my family as well. Making memories, brother!

 

Classic.

 

The average American gets just over 28,000 days on Earth...we should all be so lucky to spend 10 of them like this.

 

What a great experience! Thank you for taking the time to share your adventure.

 

Your family, car and roadtrip RULE!!!

Kudos to you!! Great thread.. Greater trip.. thanks for taking us along...

 

What a perfect trip! You and your family have got it figured out, good on ya dude. You and your son logged some serious pool hours too, impressive!

 

Coolest thread ever!! Now which post # had that blog link?

 

Great thread! Thanks for taking the time to do it. I know every time you made a short stop for a photo op the kids wanted to pile outa the car so it had to be a chore sometimes. Very well done. Now on to your wife's blog..........

Thanks for taking the time to put that story together. You are a rad dad. It brought back some warm and fuzzy feeling of road trips as a little kid in our family's black and white '59 Chevy with its special "smoke screen" feature. Burgers in Wallace Idaho. Endless signs for- "The SNAKE PIT, ahead!" Groovy beaded headbands at the 100,000 Silver Dollar Bar and getting charged by an angry buffalo on a back road in Montana! It also brought back good times rolling through Texas in a rock and roll band. I truly love it down there and was treated so kind. Thanks again. Now go have a good surf!

 

Thank you so much.

 

Noting like home after a long trip is there...???

I love road trips and have logged many thousands of miles all across this US...as you can see IF you read GoodGuy's Gazette.

Thanx for taking us along...

R-

 

Fantastic trip and photos, thanks for sharing

 

Nothin like a family road trip in an old Chevy! Nice fam and car bro!!

 

I'm glad i got the pleasure to meet Shawn, his wife and his 2 cute kiddos! You guys were really cool people to talk to-very down to earth-not to mention your car was pretty sweet too! they stayed at the same motel we did...Hope you guys had a good trip home! cool pics by the way

 

Dude...
THAT WAS AWESOME!

My first child is about 7.5 months away from seeing the light of day, so i bought him/her a 57 chevy 4 door as a welcome gift.

i pray i'll get to have the same experience with my family.

You're a blessed man.

thanks for sharing.

 

Thank you for sharing this. So great.

 

Thanks for all the comments everyone! If you are wondering if your family might be ready to hit the road in an old car, check out Kenna's final blog post!

Easily the best HAMB thread I've ever read and I've been here a long time. With a two year old and one on the way and a '53 Chevy wagon in the garage, I can't wait to take a trip of our own!

 

This is easily one of the best threads of the year.. Road trip threads rule, and yours is no exception.

I miss taking long-distance road trips with my family. Those were the good old days. Great to see your kids will have those memories too.

 

Great great read, thanks for posting.

 

Boy I miss the cross country rides. Glad you had a good time and thanks for taking us along.
