Road Trippin

Good morning Vietnam, but mostly just America.
Today is Thursday August 5 10:47 AM in the year of our Lord 2010.

On Monday, after saying goodbye to an old friend going away to college, Emily and I hit the highway.
We had discussed going on a roadtrip once about 6 months ago.
After a quick lesson from Emily's dad on using pepper spray and hitting men with large sticks, we were as good as gold.
Better than gold even.
Although, there was that time Emily forgot she was a US citizen when crossing the border. oops.
It was just Emily, Daniel and I. Daniel is the GPS.

We are staying with my brother and his wife, Sara in San Diego at the college campus where they work.
Actually, Daniel sleeps in the car.

On Tuesday morning, we got up and played Tuesday Tennis at Two. At Nine.
The courts were overlooking the ocean, and you could feel the cool ocean breeze.
The weather was perfect, and there was music coming from the baseball field.
It was most definitely the greatest tennis I have ever played.

Afterward, we headed to Pacific Beach for some beach related activities and walking downtown.
We got lost. It wasn’t Daniel’s fault.






That evening my sister and her boyfriend, Mike picked us up and brought us back to the parking lot we had somehow wandered miles from. We met Sara at Amber’s apartment and all had Mike’s now famous vegetarian sloppy joes followed by frozen yogurt. We ran into one of those potentially rabid possums on the way back, or PRPs if you will.

Where are my pepper spray and large wooden pole when I need them?
It’s the story of my life.

Keep it Real
