I kept a journal in a notebook (not a computer, a real notebook) about all the interesting things that happened on our little voyage with the intent of posting it here and putting pictures in the picture section. Change of plan: when I get the film developed I'll see if any of the pics turned out. We'll see. When I get my computer hooked up, I'll unload the digital camera. Till then, here are the highlights:
Left later than expected on Saturday, so three day trip turned into four day trip. CB radio in Metro burned out just before Milwaukee, roughly an hour into the voyage. Saw a rolled-over SUV just after Illinois toll-booth. Truck started losing transmission fluid somewhere in Missouri. Added oil in Oklahoma. Ate at a Denny's in Oklahoma City where the wife was a little freaked by a homeless guy who chain smoked and stared from another booth. At a Texas McDonald's I saw a woman who looked a little like someone I had seen in the Exhibition section. In New Mexico one of the wheels came off of the trailer. A slight delay getting that fixed. Albequerque looks beautiful at night. South of Tucson up in the hills is a section of unique looking rounded rocks. Of course I didn't get any pictures of them. Driving by Davis-Monthan AFB was interesting, lots of planes of all types just sitting around. Couldn't find a place to stay down there that was cheaper than staying with the wife's cousin (free-ish), so we're here in Mesa. I started tossing resumes around today and we'll see what happens. I gotta go outside for a cigarette now, so I'll end this.
