Greetings from… Redding, California
My April travels started out in Los Angeles for WWE WrestleMania 39! I had a great time reconnecting with friends and bouncing around West Hollywood for the weekend!
Post-LA, I went to Palm Springs for a week to relax.
After that, I went back to Pahrump, Nevada to clean out my van more. I've started getting more and more hits on a sale for a van so I think that is going to happen soon! Pahrump is a VERY small town so when I saw they were going to do a very rare drag queen bingo there, I joined in with a big crew of my RV friends & went to support!
There is a very fun group in Las Vegas called the "Las Vegays" so when I heard they were having a big picnic & I was only an hour away, I made the trip! As an added bonus, I got invited to a fun afterparty later that night! I had so much fun with this group, I'll definitely be hanging with them more often!
The third week of April took me back to Palm Springs. I hung out here because I went on a cruise out of Long Beach, California the last week of April. Joe, my best friend from back in Omaha had never been on a cruise before so I was very excited that I was able to talk him into going! I hadn't seen him since I visited Omaha last July so it was great to catch up again! I think we are going to try making it an annual tradition that we take a trip together somewhere! The cruise left from Long Beach, over to Catalina Island, down to Ensenada, Mexico & back. One of the highlights of the trip for me was getting to put together another SantaCon bar crawl on the ship! 🎅
When we got back from the cruise, we had a few hours to waste so we very spontaneously decided to rent a motorboat & cruise around the marina in Long Beach for an hour. Hilarity ensued & I had such a great time!
After I dropped Joe off at the airport, I darted down an hour south to the Adventure Van Expo. I fell in LOVE at this event! I've had my eye out on what kind of van I wanted to get next & after attending this event, I definitely know what I want to get! I'm planning on a 2022 Winnebago Revel / Mercedes Benz Sprint van! This event was packed with those types of van and there are a million different mod and accessories you can get for them! ❤️🚐❤️
When the event was over, I swooped back up to Los Angeles to go to the Spooky Swap Meet! There is a very large cult following of anything related to Halloween / spooky / horror in the LA area and this event is any body to sell their stuff or get ready for the Halloween season! My dear friend Mr. He had the honor of converting the Heritage Square Museum into an adorable Ghost Cemetary! I hadn't seen him a couple of years since we grabbed a drunk together in New York City for WrestleMania 35 (so exactly 4 years ago)! He didn't know I was going to show up so it was such a treat to surprise him. He is always up to something exciting, go follow his Insta for me: https://www.instagram.com/amrheslasher/ 👻
Whew! I had a whirlwind of a really fun April!
