Here's just a small sample of why driving is better than flying.

As we headed across Indiana yesterday, Jennifer snapped these pics of a barn fire.

If you are in a car. . . seeing a fire is not dangerous. . . If you are in a plane and see fire. . . . It's because YOU are on fire!

Stay tuned for more pics as we go!
 
Here's the first pic!

Here's the close-up. . . check out the water streams from the fire hoses. . . No one was hurt and no animals were lost.

Ahhhhh. The good old days. Unfortunately, most of ours were inside jobs where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face:D :D
 
With all the INFI

that you are hauling

you would have to borrow

an army cargo plane

to get off the ground! ;)
 
Jerry,


AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHH!!!!!!!!! My cell was on "silent" from the night before! I turned the ringer off to avoid interrupting Lamaze class and never changed it! Damned Lamaze class! I hope you don't see anything of mine on fire as you pass through IL. :D Have a safe trip. Try me again if you come back through my neck of the woods on the way home.
 
If you guys are taking 74 on the return trip, stop on by the bakery for some of those Steel Heart cookies, box lunches and beer.:D

Nice try Kev! I have free beer and some other liquid gold I got Jerry hooked on. :D
 
This was supposed to be a pic of a sign that said "Skunk River" in Iowa. . . .Apparently this SUV blocked the shot at the last moment. We didn't know this until we downloaded pics this morning and I told Jenifer, "Hey, that guy driving looks like Santa!". . . That's when she noticed the guy's license plate! It appears to say "Santa" !!!!

Ha Ha!

I knew I was being followed! You can't trust any of those INFI Hoardin' Bastids from the North Pole!. . .Hey! Wait a minute! Where are you from SpearHog????:eek: :eek: :eek: What happened? Miss your flight? Had to take your Horsepowered Sleigh? Didn't think I'd recognize you, heh? You are busted pal!!!!!

Rudolph is gonna be on a skewer for lunch if you don't back off!!! ;)

Right now, we're in Golden Colorado, the home of Coors Beer and Spyderco. Great beer and great blades. . . I may never leave!

We drove 1,023 miles yesterday with the roof down until we hit North Platte Nebraska where it started to rain and northern Colorado where there were snow flakes falling!!!! Roof up. . . Heater on! Jennifer in a parka. . . Me in shorts and a T-Shirt. . . Women are always cold!!! As soon as it starts snowing they want the roof up and the heater on! What's that all about? ;) :D

We are off and headed west!!!

We had a late start, but are now on schedule to make it to BLADE Trough West on Friday Afternoon!


Nuke on!

Jerry
