Much as I bitch about certain things, I love driving. I’m talkin’ about The Road. Which means making a Minneapolis > NJ run isn’t that bad–usually. The weather though this Friday and Saturday? Stunningly beautiful for 1,200 miles. Unusual because one leg of the trip always means rain. Not this time. You gotta drive through flyover country sometimes for some pretty amazing views. Okay, sappy Field of Dreams moment over.Is Wisconsin the only state still playing Donnie Iris on FM? Good thing I brought diapers with me to make up some of the two hours lost going through Chicago on a major holiday weekend–at 4:00 pm. On second thought, mullets on women in Toledo aren’t half-bad. Oh look, the state car of PA: the dark teal Ford Escort wagon. Nicely compliments the deer carcass on the roof. (Optional on 2002 and up models.) Hey, NJ and NY drivers both welcoming me back at the state line with open arms, swerving and veering.

Better yet, that teal Ford Escort deer must have been bagged illegally, as it's not deer season in PA. It is, however, crow season (weekends only).
Ahhh, useless knowlege, how I love thee....
True. This is the cumulative recollection of having driven that PA segment at various times during the year.
;-p
