My summer vacation.......lol

[Jbb]

So .....I make a trip to Phoenix....lookin at a Daytona ........what could go wrong ....right?....lol
I leave Sunday nite hours ahead of Miss Katrina ....I figured If I could get West of Mississippi without stopping ..I would be ok.....what I didnt expect was the thousands of people from southern Miss, and Lousiana....with everything they own in and on top of their cars...clogging up every rest stop and hotel.....The rest of the drive out was easy ..I was gonna zip over to Cali for a visit...but that didnt happen
a few shots from the road.....West Texas and New Mexico

At the end of Monday I ended up in a Hotel somewhere in New Mexico... :jawdrop: after going past a border patrol crossing...in the US on I 10
wonder what the border guy would have said about a bag of cash and a .45....
There was a party going on in the room next to mine .....none spoke english....nice people...I told them I was Tom Brown....
a few observations....
1- The state of Mississippi Sux....
2- When any girl behind the counter anywhere in Texas asks would you like your order Texas sized.....the correct answer is No ma'am...regular size is fine...
3- Mexzico....produces some of the finest looking..(resident status not withstanding) women I have ever seen..
4-Tequila....bad
5-Most truck drivers are very large.....Theres nothing like wolfing down 5 lbs of breakfast buffet before a long day sitting behind the wheel.....Flying J travel plaza observation...
6-Yeah.....108 in Gilbert.....Its a dry heat alright...like a dry blowtorch
7- Mississippi Sux

The ride home was good as well got to see some kind of giant structure fire in Texas.....and about 20 Texas cops pointing their guns at a guy in a fore runner.... everything was going great ...then I hit Mississippi and there are no lights on ...the entire state is dark....I need gas ...no gas.....the one station pumping wanted $5 a gal....and the line was miles long....I press on figuring I can find a part of the state lit up....nope.....I wander into a truck stop in Meridian Miss...just about empty....no cell towers....no food...I was about ready to trade my new boat for a frozen burrito... a boat with 50 gallons of race fuel in it.....I spent the night ....in my car....no room service or anything
