Gallery Updated!

I just finished adding captions to all the Eastbound - Texas pictures in the Road Trip gallery.

I love working on those pictures, because it reminds me how happy Anne and I were on that trip.

» Wil conquers Route 66 from Intergalactic subatomic particle breeze
I was looking at Wil's Eastbound Texas Gallery and being amused to the umpteenth power. I am thrilled to discover that Wil and his wife take pictures of the state lines!. I thought my husband and I were the only dweebs that do that! I guess that Wi... [Read More]

No, not you.

Yes, you.

Posted by: bushwhacker at November 5, 2003 06:32 PM

I got it, Wil: "Everybody remember where we parked" caption on img_2834 - nice reference to William Fucking Shatner's line in Star Trek IV!

Posted by: Jim_66 at November 5, 2003 06:49 PM

Love the pics! And, you tagging up? Fucking awesome! The captions had me laughing. :D

Posted by: Nikki at November 5, 2003 06:54 PM

You've got to stop posing like this:

It drives the photoshop gurus wild.

Posted by: synchronicity at November 5, 2003 07:09 PM

Hey Wil. Did you hear any chainsaws running when you took those pics on the first page?

Posted by: Joseph Todd at November 5, 2003 07:46 PM

Thanks for all the pictures. I really do like looking at them! It's a lot of fun to see one of my favorite celebrities doing real life stuff for once :) You are awesome Wil Wheaton! Hope to see more in the future. Peace!

Posted by: Cris at November 5, 2003 08:48 PM

I live in South Texas, should have come down here. It is nice

Posted by: PJ at November 5, 2003 09:10 PM

LOL @ soapbox.wilwheaton.net error message.

Posted by: isabel at November 5, 2003 09:45 PM

Wil,
Looks like a great trip. I have been to that part of the globe but I am always to busy to take pictures. Some say that I am too lazy. It looks like a good road trip, to me.

FG

Nr 18 is great lol Bernard Sumner did exactly that one time on stage and he looked like you. Cool Pics, thanks! Chris

Posted by: Chris at November 5, 2003 09:59 PM

I know this was about the eastbound texas album, but i had had to comment on the AVON 3 day walk,...wow is all I can say. I just had a surgery a month before the my wedding to remove a lump. It was the scarriest month of not knowing what it might be....But everything is good and I think its so awesome what you two did, and rasied so much money. Well it got me a little emotional.

Thank you for sharing your memories with complete strangers, and some of us are pretty stange :)

Posted by: Vickie at November 5, 2003 10:04 PM

Good stuff!

Posted by: Brad Pineau at November 5, 2003 10:07 PM

But Photoshopping Wil is fun!

And the goat is so versitile!

Although, I am sorry Wil, for this one. No one deserved this:

Or maybe Magnum PI Sidekick Action Wil?

Or finally, Single Deuce Action Wil:

Looks like it was a pretty nifty trip! Though I've spent my life with the desire to avoid Texas like the plague, if I ever visit there, I'll be sure to check this stuff out. And, now that I think about it, it'd be pretty cool to pull over in an abandoned town with the lady-friend and... Nevermind, TMI. Ha ha.

But still, I don't know. It IS the home of Dubya, who has the worst jobs record of any president since the Depression...

Posted by: Eric at November 6, 2003 01:49 AM

Wil, you are a photoshopper's wet dream. NARF!

(btw, I didn't break the Soapbox. Nope, wasn't me, honest! ::twistedgrins::)

Posted by: Luvie at November 6, 2003 02:27 AM

Thanks for sharing them all: some really great pictures, and nice captions too!
LOL at the "broken Soapbox" message.

Posted by: ionicus at November 6, 2003 02:39 AM

I know on your audioblog you mentioned a few landmarks located near the university where I work in Oklahoma---here's a link to the corn maize you passed http://www.pbarfarms.com/ --the mini donkeys & llamas don't have their own webpage (hard to to html with hooves I guess). ;-)

Posted by: alej at November 6, 2003 05:37 AM

I have a photo from my 1998 roadtrip of the same tower cafe in Shamrock texas... and the big cowboy, and the leaning water tower.... cool, we overlapped! It looks like they're renovating the tower cafe... it was closed and abandoned when I took pictures on my trip. Cool.

Posted by: Steph Mineart at November 6, 2003 07:20 AM

The painting on the back of the signs looks like the Savage Dragon (http://www.savagedragon.com). In Amarillo. Who knew?

Posted by: PJ at November 6, 2003 08:20 AM

My only comment is the dark words on dark background is really hard to read. Looks good though!

Great pictures! You passed some of the same things going eastward as I did headed westward for Burning Man this summer:

...There's a picture of me at the Cadillac Ranch before they painted it on my home page at http://tapestry3.home.mindspring.com/index.html . Take care!

Posted by: Tim at November 6, 2003 09:10 AM

Ha! You even took a picture of where you peed. Now THAT'S good picture taking!

Posted by: Angelwwolf at November 6, 2003 10:27 AM

I have the "joy" of living in Amarillo. The freaky signs and Cadillac Ranch both come from the same source. One Stanley Marsh III. He's our local eccentric aka nutso Rich Guy.

Posted by: Prfbrain at November 6, 2003 11:19 AM

I was gonna say... you give way too much Fark-fodder with your posing there, Wil ;-)

Posted by: Jodie at November 6, 2003 11:30 AM

Hey Wil, next time you're in Texas you've got to get down to Austin, man. That's where it's at. Not sure what "it" is, but it’s here. In Austin. Yep. All the “it” you could ever want.

Posted by: druidGirl at November 6, 2003 12:56 PM

The signs are the handy work of a group of teens that work(ed) for Stan Marsh, the owner the Cadillac Ranch and the local eccentric. I used to work with a guy in Austin that was part of the whole thing. Along with the signs this guy told me that they once dressed up in army gear and tricked out a van to look like the A-Team for a local parade. No reason. Stan just asked them to do it. He also had pictures.

Posted by: Dane at November 6, 2003 06:45 PM

Oh! Get to Oklahoma so I can see stuff...thats right down the street. Umm...yeah.

Yay Yukon!!! Did you cruise Garth Brooks Blvd?
