HEADED DOWN SOUTH!!!!!

Posted By from June 11, 2009
We got a 911 call from our man Ryan down at YABO in Ft. Myers, FL.  Says they need some Jupiter One in their life....naturally we shimmied down the fireman's pole and hopped in the Blaze.

We got 2 days and 1,300 miles to drive so we decided to make a stop at Ice Man and Margo's along the way.  I can't remember AT ALL what we did when we got there other than looking at their wedding photos (which had plenty of us in them.)  As "Glen" always said,  "Hearing about people's dreams are like looking at photos.   If you're not IN any of them...then you're just not interested."  Needless to say, Margo probably cooked something and Ice Man probably had us cracking up about something....either way.  A good time.  Obvi.

So we woke up the next morning and started our long ass haul from Richmond, VA to Orlando, FL.  Gonna meet up with our friend Dave Toback (a.k.a. Toebutt), and drive the rest of the way to Ft. Myers in the morning.

Zac reading his book....

K working on his "Anna" Re-mix...

..and Me taking a picture of myself; we were ready to plow through miles of highway to reach the Florida Sun.

UNTIL, for no apparent reason 2 cop cars decided to pace the entire freeway at 20 miles an hour.

Wtf?

We never did find out the reason for all this, but we drove that way for a loooooooong time.  NOW we might show up to Toebutt's super late...which means we won't get to make fun of him in his MAGIC jersey.  Once the cops FINALLY left,  the SilverBlaze opened up and never looked back....

alt
Our only other obstacle from this point on was trying to distract K from yelling "PULL OVER!" everytime we passed one of these....

Despite the several pee stops  (for K)....

alt
...we eventually made it.  And yes...Toebutt was sitting on his couch, donning his MAGIC jersey.  We had some drinks, Pat met some friends at a bar around the corner, and then we all slept.  zzzzzz
