tHe LoNg dRivE - dAy fOuR

I love the drive up. I love the roads, I love the view. Sadly I couldn't reach the camera in the backseat of the car without wrecking in the process. So I have no proof of the beautiful drive. I'm pissed because I already typed this intro once and then I lost internet connection. Not sure I remember everything that I wrote and not sure it really matters. I just remember thinking some of it was funny and now I can't get it back. poop.


It was late but not too late for children who are on vacation. We walked over to the Antique Machinery Show to see Uncle Charlie pull his yellow and mean Minneapolis Molene. He pulled 152.2 feet. He said that wasn't very good. That he had power and no traction. Tractor Talk. He gave us a ride back to the house in the bed of his truck. I haven't done this in so long and I felt like a kid again! It was only right down the street but I think I prefer this method of traveling and wish that it was legal.

Got back to the house and drank a bunch of beer. had to sleep in the tent by myself. Bird had to go to a Phillies game with a vendor Friday night and so wouldn't be up 'til Saturday morning. Bird time meant that would actually be around lunchtime. It was a little scary sleeping by myself in a tent borrowed from my boss. I was really cold though mostly, and was sad that i didn't have my Bird to snuggle with.
