Restop outside Redlands, California. It
rained all night here.
Rest stop outside Blythe, Arizona.
See Arizona, even though I just came from Hawaii
and this lack of water is shocking and reminds me a
a bit of death, because in Hawaii, the water creates
life, I still respect you and the Zonies enough to do
a little chalk art for you. Why live in a place with
with water, when you can be unnatural and shuttle
the water in. You rock!
Classic Arizona landscape. Thirsty? I'll see the masterpiece later
this week, The Grand Canyon. But of course, that was created
by water. Haaaaa.....I'm just messin' with you Zonies!
Well, I spent a long boring night playing Tetris and reading. The reading wasn’t so much boring as was the sitting and the waiting to drive again. It rained all night and the inside of my truck smelled a little mildew-ish. I got up about 9:30 and started driving. Somewhere just before the Arizona state line I looked down at the gas gauge and saw that I only had under a quarter tank. You would think that would be enough to get you to the next gas station. Well…. I drove my truck until the needle was on “E”, the red gas gauge light was on, and all I could see was desert. I turned off the radio, as if my pure concentration was going to get me rolling farther. So, I rolled into the 76 station totally stressed out. I made it. I do have AAA, but I didn’t want to deal with all that, plus it’s getting ready to rain around here. I happened to pull into IHOP on the one day when they were celebrating some kind of pancake holiday, so I got free pancakes. It’s about 2:30 right now, I’m just in the Arizona state line, just past Blythe, and I plan to be to my friend’s house tomorrow. I’m going to read the USA today, and relax. I know I got killed in the stock market today. Bye all.
I'm now in Arizona, at the Starbucks ( I hate coffee too). Enjoy world.
