Man pac sounds like you will give me a run for my money in miles traveled this year. You might fit in pac. Just a bunch of people wondering around with nowhere to go.
I have plenty of places to go, just being pulled in too many directions by Family, Business, and what i would really prefer to do. I have been locked down for longer than I care to think about for the last 16 months or so, and now everyone is trying to keep me busy, supposedly for my own good.
While it is great to have so many people concerned and trying to keep me busy, is a pain when after I set my schedule, they change theirs and screw up mine.
This trip was totally unplanned and since I had the Subaru Outback sitting, gathering dust, when my daughter-in-law's car died, it only seemed logical to take them the Outback, since I didn't need it anyway and was wondering what to do with it. Got to take care of family first and they really need it.
Can't believe the number of dinner invitations I have gotten from Friends, Neighbors and it seems like total strangers. They also seem to coincide with visitors from Cesspool Flats, Alabama that happen to be a unmarried or widow lady. I positively swear some of djones hogs have better hygiene habits than some of these ladies. Usually manage to make sure I'm upwind, but not always successful.
Heck, my brother and son conspired and put me into a dating service and you won't believe what some of the 28-52 year old's are offering over the internet....Must be a real jungle out there for the ladies. I get an average of about 6 emails a day, some with fairly explicit pictures, from single ladies with a hugely proportionate amount from Texas. Must be cause the guys there are so effeminate .....LOL...Some are fairly obvious Gold Diggers, but some are totally sincere. Some pictures are so bad, I considered burning the laptop to get rid of them.
Hasn't been long enough for me to want to get back on the Horse yet.
Funny story: One of the ladies from the dating site in Tucson was persistent in that I should meet her over coffee and have a long talk. From her picture, she looked like the old First Sgt I had when I first entered the Army, except I don't think his mustache was that heavy. OH, and she was heavily Liberal besides. Trying to divert her, I finally sent her to review this thread and she came back about 4 days later with "You all are a bunch of perverts"...I laughed until I hurt.....People that can't understand the difference between implied remarks and fact are all too common, I guess.
Anyway have been traveling for a couple days now and typing on a laptop is a PIA. Keys are not where I expect them to be.
Will check in later in the trip.
