Coke Blak!
Day 17
All new!
April 12th, 2010
I'm walking across America.
That's the idea, at least. I'm walking westward from New York City for nine months or so. If everything goes according to plan, I'll be in Oregon when the clock runs out. If nothing goes according to plan, maybe I'll end up in Peru or Mongolia or Pennsylvania. You can read all about the details of my trip if you're so inclined.

Here's my progress so far:
Is the bear supposed to look like he’s double-birding someone?
Oh, looks like there really is a drink called Coke Blak. This was just a Coke truck with all the Coke cans and bottles blacked out for some reason.
They are blacked out because someone bought the truck used from a distributor. They don’t want the new owner pretending to be them or embarrassing the brand so they cover all of the logos, etc. (though the bear is a giveaway). They do the same thing when selling used police cars.
BTW, just found your trip and am dutifully reading every page since my wife has forbade my sudden urge for a 9-month walk across the country for the foreseeable future.
Good luck and stay safe.
