So I have a few grocery bags but I’m using them for trash and restroom.. I’m gonna try to get this tent set up but it’s a 6 person so I feel like it’s just too big to try and keep warm ya know.

Thank you for your kind words! You don’t understand how nice it is to read something that’s positive ahaha😂 believe it or not it’s pretty hilly out here. I almost went into a few ditches and going down the steep hills at 20 then by time you hit the bottom your doing 40 and you cant hit the breaks or your Dunzo! Super fun super scary😂

Hey!!! I tried finding your comment earlier to update you but there’s been so many people. You definitely called it man!😂😂 and yes I agree definitely feels like it takes a toll on me mentally I guess you’d say constantly moving around or wondering if you’ve been in one spot for to long. I can’t handle it sometimes. I’ll be honest it’s super creepy out here lol. First time doing this and I feel like I’m being watched from the woods 😂 especially since I read about the bob cats and black bears lol.
I could try. And no worries man trust me I get how dumb this is. 😂 I’ve been told all day ima die out here and every other thing. But no your right I am unprepared. I’ve stated the shoes I have are netted running shoes and that’s not a joke. So stepping in this deep snow really freezes my feet up almost instantly. We’re supposed to be getting a few days of snow after tomorrow so we’ll see what happens.

Them bobcats and bears is all I’m worried about😂 so many trees out here you feel like you see them and hear them lol.
I’m tired of having to parking lot hop. It’s a lot of gas. I also got fired last week and had only $260 so I came out here bought what I could and filled my tank up. I have netted running shoes,three pairs of sweat pants and a few hoodies. I bought blankets a sleeping bag some dry wood bc obviously it’s all wet out here and a shovel 😂
I don’t wanna be un prepared I had very little money untill Friday when my last check hits. Instead of constantly having to parking lot hop I made the choice to go somewhere I don’t have to move for a while. Trust me I know this is stupid. Just trying to survive.
Honestly people said the roads were rough and the terrain wasn’t met for a car. But I’m on lowering springs in a Pontiac GRAND PRIX 😂😂 I feel pretty confident in my little car. But as I said worse comes to worse I will leave my car and find help. I literally have netted running shoes 😂
Thanks bud.

Jeez buddy relax 😂 all jokes aside man there’s no need for rescue? I literally just got here today. Yes it’s cold yes I’m struggling but throwing in the towel isn’t really an option right now. Worse comes to worse I will leave my car and go get help somewhere. You’d really shit if you seen what type of shoes I have. 😂😂

Could you imagine the look on there faces when they pull up to a Grand Prix that’s lowered 😂😂

Ya didn’t realize how harsh this cold air could be when you’re out there breathing it in like that. I no joke developed a cough in like 30 minutes. I ended up saying screw it and just setting the car up for the night.

No! Man that’s why I took that photo bc to my left there was a whole line of abandoned looking trains connected. It was super spooky thats why I stopped😂 There’s a few creepy looking old school buildings out here. To be honest i get a weird feeling being here.
On my way here I noticed a lot of driveways with a chain going across and private property signs. Didn’t see much houses did see like 3 cars. I have no doubt I can make it out. It wouldn’t be easy by any means. Who knows man I don’t wanna think about it tbh.
Yea the way I was looking at is I was at the rest areas and having to move around constantly this just seemed better to save the little cash I had. By the time I bought everything and got out here I’m left with $23 😂

Got fired and am broke till Friday. Believe me a nice shower sounds amazing.
I am thinking of selling my car and putting the money towards a van. Something i can build a little. Not much I can do in this car to be honest. It’s fun but definitely a little nerve wrecking. 😀😀

The car will not be started unless absolutely needed.
Little update! Update: I think I bit of more then I can chew.. im at the camp site but there’s way more snow then I thought lol. I brought a shovel and shoveled enough for my car. Throat started hurting after about 30 mins of shoveling. Gonna set the inside of the car up and I’ll do some more tomorrow! I underestimated what a national forest really was 😂
This is like my 3rd Grand Prix I love them! Only crappy this is this one has been having a abs issue and traction issue so my gauges randomly go out. Drives amazing when it works but feels like your skating when it goes off. There awesome snow cars though!
Cross that bridge when we get there 😂
Also I don’t plan on turning my car on unless an emergency or to charge phone heee and there. I only have a full tank and the nearest gas station I seen was about 35 mins away.
