A writing tablet for my thoughts
6 Mar
Yes, it’s almost time. The Pink clan is driving east to my ancestral homeland. I’ll post the route later, because it is different from the route of the famous Chick-Fil-A run. I’m going through Tennessee. It adds all of 20 miles and I avoid the wasteland known as southern Indiana and Southern Illinois. Plus, I’ll take another detour to see the Holocaust Memorial featured in the movie, Paperclips.
Yes, I am driving thought St. Louis and down I-40. We leave here on March 14 and will be traveling for a little over 3 days. Night one should put us in St. Louis, Night two in Knoxville. Night three Winston-salem or Raleigh or home. Depends.
I have mapped out all the Chick-Fil-A’s again. I will not be revisiting the Charleston, WV location with me and mrtool’s picture. however, thanks to wireless, I will be ordering from the car en route for a pick up. Bwa ha ha ha. Technology is great.
For the record, I am basically better. I got my yearly physical yesterday and everything seems normal (except being overweight). blood pressure is actually the low end of normal. Maybe I’m more mellow than I think.
I’m down 14 pounds from Jan 1, so I am feeling a bit better.
Anywho, I’ll write from home, but won’t be around here until next week. My Statis-Pro football league has its draft this Saturday.
