I’ve had a link to the Tioga George blog for quite a while now. If you don’t read his blog you really should. He’s a 70 year old guy who travels the US and Mexico in his RV and writes about it 2 to 4 times a day. He has anthropomorphized many of the “things” in his RV and in fact his RV is Ms Tioga. He also has Mr. Sunny, his solar panels, Little Mavicito his camera, Ms. GQ(Great Quality) and Mr. Chips his computers. Mr. DeLorme is his GPS and Mr. DataStorm is his satellite antenna.
He writes about his travels and includes not only his team members but all the interesting people he meets. He supports himself with SS and Google Ads. I was surprised to learn he makes over $1000 a month on Google Ads. He also tracks the visitors to his blog using SiteMeter which is why I’m posting this.
A few days ago I clicked on his “Weekly Story: Web Counters” link and noticed my blog accounts for some of his visitors. Check near the bottom next to the first “7”. I’m thinking most of those were me but hopefully this will get someone else interested.
He’s currently in Mexico but will be coming back to the US in a few months. He says he wants to go to the eastern side of the US after this.
I think I am probably the one who first introduced you to George. I have had his link on my blog for several years now, and I read his blog every day. He is quite a character. Like everyone, he has his eccentricities, but I don’t know of anyone else who brings as much vicarious pleasure to so many people with wanderlust in their veins.

Correct, and I forgot to mention that. I found George on your blog. At first I thought you must have met him but you said you hadn’t. He is a character.
