Who do you think I found in Columbia, South Carolina today? That's right, Dave and Joelle. We met up in a coffee shop, in Five Points, called drip, to strategize the upcoming multi-state odyssey. Then it was over to The Village Idiot for pizza and more high level decision-making.

I highly recommend the Nicaraguan. It must be high test because I had a medium, six hours ago, and I'm still wound up as tight as a two dollar watch.

We made a number of important decisions.
Departure date from Dallas: September 28
Musical selection: I vetoed bag pipes, and Joelle vetoed jazz

Dashboard shrine accoutrements: Buddha, St. Christopher, glow-in-the-dark, plastic Blessed Mary, picture of the Dalai Lama
Wardrobe: yoga pants and sunglasses

Can someone help me find another Mary? I had one years ago in the Subaru, and the chances of finding her again, after three moves, is slim to none. I think I got her at the Visionary Arts Museum in Baltimore.
It was a fun drive up to Columbia today, and as always, I enjoyed the roadside scenery.
