So we were heading up the I 75 and Sylvana wasn't sure where her purse was, turns out it's back in Atlanta at Griff & Toni's house. I can't imagine how disappointed her parents will be.
So we get to stay in Toledo (which will take another 9 hours starting now) I'm glad we are delayed by one day. This trip has been so long and varied I'm going to need one day before crossing over the border just to process half of what we have seen. From Chicago to Salt Lake City in 26 hours, then San-Francisco, San Jose, LA, Las Vegas, The Grand Canyon, getting stuck and fixing the brakes in Flagstaff Arizona, where we watched a disappointing Nightmare on Elm street remake and then got kicked out of the Cinema parking lot for sleeping in the car.
A dust storm on I-40 West through Flagstaff, which made us take the long road and see some Elk! The Coolant leaking every 40 miles by the time we drove halfway through Texas, and we had to relfill it constantly all the way to New Orleans. New Orleans Crawfish! Getting the coolant hoses and water pump fixed. Up to Bethany and David's wedding outside of Washington D.C. Two weeks in Florida, doing stand-up, eating seafood and lying on the Beach, up to Atlanta to spend some great days with Griff (one the most hilarious and spiritual people I have ever come across), Toni, and their wonderful family.
Now we're in a Starbucks off the highway near Lexington, Kentucky. There are lot of of fascinating people and places in the United States of America, and I can't wait to get into some of the stories with all of you in person and in future entries.
And if you haven't yet, listen to Jethro Tull's "Aqualung" album. It fucking rocks.
