Road Bites: The Foodie's Guide to the Ultimate U.S. Road Trip

About the Author: William Frye Sr.

William Frye Sr. AKA: The Mattress Maverick spends an average of 6-8 months on America’s roads traveling for a variety of reasons. Mostly for pleasure, fishing, eating, taking nature pictures, writing for his next book/adventure, etc.... So, to label myself as a self proclaimed travelling foodie, isn’t a far stretch. I love to eat, and I love good eating even more. So, if you happen to see me out and about the country somewhere, feel free to say HI. Maybe we can even share a meal together wherever we happen to be. Do I pack up the RV, camper or other recreational vehicle to do my travelling? Nope, I do not. I personally pack up my vehicle and get on the road. It’s time to live live, Happy & Safe travels, and may the food forever be in your flavor.
