Neanna and Jason's Frito Pie Fueled Honeymoon
Donazione protetta
Frito pie!! New Mexicans think it was invented in Santa Fe; Texans, in San Antonio. When Anthony Bourdain calls it “warm crap in a bag,” who should be insulted? Jason and I vow to get to the bottom of one of the biggest mysteries of the universe and we’d like your help.
On August 1st we will bravely embark upon a journey across a new world. A world that at times will be unwelcome to strangers and will close their doors on us. But we won’t give up! We’ll travel far and wide to bring back the answers we all deserve. We've saved some money for this quest but need your help to take us all the way. With your modest donation we'll be able to purchase new gear to sustain ourselves and both literal and metaphorical fuel for our journey.
SO HERE'S THE TRUTH.... I absolutely LOVE Frito pie. I’m Texan, its in my blood. It's the only reason I ever attended a football game in high school. And while I wouldn’t mind knowing it's history, the reality is that it was invented and we all get to enjoy it, and thats all that matters. More than finding out answers to questions that don’t matter, I’d really love for Jason and I to get to take whatever honeymoon we can as newlyweds. A road trip honeymoon wasn’t what we’d planned on, but we know we can turn it into something truly special and memorable. And while we didn’t get to have our wedding at Basecamp 37 this year we are still going there in August to work for a few weeks. We'd like to turn the drive there and the drive back into the best mini moon we can! We aren’t seeking to lavish ourselves at restaurants or stay in fancy resorts with couples massages. As you all know we prefer to camp under the stars and cook each other dinner.
We’d love your help acquiring some new gear for the trip (like a new tent, a portable stove and camp cooking stuff, a roof cargo box to put all that stuff in, and new bad ass tires for our truck so we can go drive on all the crazy roads) and generally to just help alleviate the stress of spending money on something that, especially given the worlds climate, we absolutely know is not a necessity, but is instead a desire. We know times are tough for everyone. Most of you, like us, haven’t had jobs or income in months. And most of you, like us, have donated what little you do have to reparations and mutual aid. We’re not asking for much, truly whatever you’re able and willing to give would be greatly appreciated. We won't any point be having a traditional registry, so apart from joining us next summer for our celebration this will be the only gift we would like to ask for. And any extra funds we have will go towards that celebration!
And if you can’t donate money to our cause that's totally ok! We’ll gladly accept a playlist from you to accompany us on our journey. Jason can’t sing the whole time and there are only so many episodes of true crime podcasts one can listen to. We love you dearly and cannot wait to celebrate our love for each other and for you next summer in the desert.
And lastly we promise, that we WILL have Frito pie both on our honeymoon AND at our celebration with you in Utah.
All our love,
Neanna & Jason
