Day~Tripper Entries from September 2002 to April 2003
Hi! Greg and Jenn here. This should be easier than sending email. Please let us know what you think, what you'd like to see, where you want us to go, and anything else you'd like to see -- poop tour'ish. No nudity please...
Love the site. Andit was a pleasure meeting you at the RV Park in Malibu. May see you next weekend. LOL!!!! Don & Deb 2002 Minnie Winnie
Karen and Megan Moore - Farmington Hills, MI Hello BARENAKED FAMILY! I hope you remember us (you really should, you made some nice comments about us in the "Hollywood" section of your web page). It was great to meet you all at The Wayne Brady Show. You are a great family. You obviously made quite an impression on Megan. When she was on stage during the show, she never even looked my direction because she was too busy waving at you guys, her new best friends! (It's true, and I have a videotape of the show to prove it!). Take care.
Pat Rozema - Hot Springs Village, Arkansas I'm the grandmother of Megan Moore; you met her and my great daughter-in-law, Karen Moore at the Wayne Brady Show in Hollywood, and said some very nice things in your Hollywood section. Really like your web site. You seem to have an exciting life with your children. What an education they receive from your travels. Can't get that out of a book. Enjoy your life!
Hi Greg and Jenn, Washington is lonesome without you. We miss you guys so much. I would love to know where you are now and what you're doing. We will be leaving for Texas in November and will be back in Feb. Maybe we could meet up somewhere. The girls wanted me to tell Kesley, Sunny, and Austin Hi for them. Try not to borrow any used furniture from people you don't know. Ha Kim
Greg and Jenn,
How are you guys doing? Us? Well, we're finally at home, all that living in a tent is for the birds! However, we managed for 30 days, but we have a firm resolve to buy a motorhome before we head out for next year's adventures. We just wanted you guys to know what an inspiration you are for us. Our dream is to travel the country for a couple of years, but always in the back of our minds we thought that if we had kids, it would remain just a dream. But after meeting you guys, and looking at your pictures online, we've decided that anything is possible if we just put our mind to it. Thanks for the inspiration. We really hope our paths cross again. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Dianne Navarro-Chino Valley,AZ (for now) Hi you guys! It was great meeting you all last night at the barn party. You are way cool! When you are famous (you are already rich!)I'll be able to tell everyone that I met the Barenaked Family in person. Again, I'm glad you are representing Americans in Japan.
P.S. I love the picture of the cat.
Greg-Jenn (+) Austin-Kesley-Sunne...
What a delight seeing your photos and all your silly narrative ~ Love it, Love it, Love it... for sure. Do keep updating and writing whatever. I read it all at least once every 2-3 years.
Enjoyed our brief phone visit this past Sunday. Let's try to keep that up at least 1-2 times a year... see you in November or December?
Later ~ Dad (+) G'dad and...

Love the name "Barenaked Family." We are the Jandles from Cumming, GA (about 40 miles north of Atlanta). We are still in the planning stages, but will be fulltiming as soon as we can. We just purchased a Ford F550 for towing a 5th wheel trailer. We still have some stuff to settle before hitting the road. I like to visit sites about families on the road. We will be traveling with young children and I get psyched to see others living their dream. I get reall inspired. Thanks for a great site. Kim Jandle (mom)

Hi Gang! I met your family at the Nashville Palace (I'm Brenda Best) and what a pleasure to meet you and get to talk with y'all (as we say in the South). I SO... enjoyed checking out this website and found it so educational. You lead a wonderful lifestyle and I think it's great for the kids! They're learning so much. When I met them, I sensed so much intelligence had been soaked up behind those beautiful little eyes. Greg & Jenn you are wonderful parents and I sensed that too. Your closeness as a family was truly visible and of all the people I meet, you are SPECIAL. Take care and continue to enjoy your journey. Stay safe & healthy. Luv, BB

It is March 4, the day before Ash Wednesday. I hope you guys have fun with your beads. Bead on, Campers! Dottie at Red Dog Beads in Nashville,TN
Neat web sight! Let you in when you needed an openning on I-475 on the south side of Macon, GA, Jen was at the wheel. Your webb address caught my attention and I had to look... When you are coming back up this way, there is some interesting history and several nice museums here in Macon. The Museum of Aviation in Warner Robins is also a wounderful place to visit and is free! We look our best here in middle GA during Cherry Blossom Festival which will run Mar 21-30. God Bless! Randy, Macon, Ga
Hi there. It was nice meeting you two at the RV sale and service store in Nashville TN. I caught your url on your vehicle and of course, had to look it up once I got home. We were the couple buying all the water tank equipement at McCullen and Maxy for the mobile dog grooming unit (grin) . I just wanted to say thank you for the tip about going to the RV parks, as I would have NEVER thought of doing that ! Jim has done a wonderful job in building my mobile unit and if you want to see the pictures, please visit http://www.meadowherbs.com/doggroomtrailer.htm Always remember that a retired "roadie" can build anything, anywhere, at anytime and do it fast too LOL. Happy trails Patti and Jim

Great website Greg!! Glad to see yall are doing so well! Your children are gorgeous!! I only know three kids that are as cute as they are and they happen to be my nephews and niece. (Trey, Ashleigh, and Dusty! Oh, and this is Jo (Ann) Phillips (used to be Neisler) Patti's sister) Ashleigh showed me your site when we were on the internet at my parents house. I am sure you have heard by now that our mom died. Dusty read a report during the funeral that he had written about her before she died. It was so sweet. I got to visit with your mom too, it was really good seeing her again. If you want to keep in touch write me at jeepandeasy@yahoo.com (Ashleigh has me saved on aol as "her cool aunt") I am switching dsl providers so I am not sure what my new one will be but this one will always work.

Hi Guys-me again-Karen from San Antonio (the 'spelling teacher')...one question...what if Randy ends up having 12 kids??? That's one helluva big tattoo he's got, huh? Hope your adventures are good....I admire what you are doing with and for your kids, and by the way, would you consider adopting a 43 year old "kid"?? :-)

Well kids i must put on my make to keep me looking young, so ifd find any herbs in your travels send me some, i have a job to do. All Our Love And Blessings Huni & Papa DuBose, mae & sam(120 lbs)
Hi there! I'm one of the three girl's who met your family whle in TJ, Mexico. We were the ones who asked you for directions to the "heart of city." We took a taxi and you were much braver and hoofed it to town! I think your website is wonderful as is your outlook on life! Good for you! Carrie, Purdue University, IN
Hi Junior Rangers! It was great meeting you Austin, Kesley, and Sunny! After you left I was talking with one of the other rangers about how cool, polite and friendly you all are. If you ever have any questions about the National Parks or San Diego, send me an email at patrisha_anne@yahoo.com. Your website is awesome, and you all took some really great photos of San Diego. If you haven't been to Anza Borrego Desert yet, I just went there 2 weeks ago and the desert wildflowers were blooming. Some other suggestions: Torrey Pines State Beach-Cool hikes and views San Diego Archaeology Center...it's in Escondido and is brand new...might be a good place to learn about archaeology? The Grunion...a fish that spawns on the beach at night and lives only in Southern CA and Baja...there's a website at www.grunion.org, and if you call Cabrillo we can tell you the nights to go to the beach and see them. They're so amazing! They flop around all over the sand! Have fun in San Diego! Ranger Patricia
Very nice! Keep up the good work. Your cousin, Glenn White, Haltom City, TX.
Met you at Sea World. Nice site. -Jack
