Wow, you guys are really make me feel Warm and Cozy on this trip. I would like to see you all as I travel. But it's hard. So far, I've passed by George Owens in Phily, Jason (The_Maciac) in Cleveland, Barb and Mike here in Ohio. It's hard on a trip like this to remember were everyone is as you are driving. The thing that runs thru my head is, "Are We There Yet?" Lol
I do want to meet with Everyone who is a long the I-90 route. A Cross Country Cruise Chain would be Great! Unfortunately, most of you will be working or in class, as I pass thru your area. I do appreciate all of you. And if I can I will let you guys know where I am.
Well I have to go now. The Mrs is being very impatient. We are leaving from South Bend. Cruise control set at 73mph. See you if I can!!!!!!

So now we are at the A&W in Redwood Minnesota. Had to stop to let the Pups do there thing and to put some Food in my Bellay! We are now 1187.1 Miles from Brick NJ. TOO many more miles to go. I can't wait to see the sign that says "Welcome to Washington!" 10 years ago I would have enjoyed the Heck outta this trip. Now, I just want it over. Honestly, I'm a bit concerned, stopping in these small towns and being of the Darker Persuasion! I know it's Wrong to think that way, but you would have to understand the things that happened to me in my youth! Anyways, I'm big, have a kind of intimidating look and I'm driving a Yellow Monte!
I'll be ok! :-)

Hi J.C.,
It great to read the travels of your trip. I'm not worried about you getting hurt, I'd be more worried about someone stealing your Awesome Award winning Monte Carlo

Oh, Belated Happy Birthday...Wish you a safe/fun Trip to your new home >EnJoy the Journey<
