So we are off on a much needed, long awaited journey. The ultimate goal is we are headed to Whidbey Island for a wedding. We left after work today (well after Trent was done work - I'm a government employee after all) and we headed to Cache Creek for the night. It was a short trip at just over two hours. It was enough for today though. There were some sketchy drivers between Vernon and Kamloops as always. Never before though has Trent been hit in the neck whilst driving by a piece of rogue rubber.........
We were cruizin....on a sunny afternoon - ok I promise that this years blog won't turn into cheesy song lyrics and yes for all you over corrective assholes out there, I know it's supposed to be Sunday but today is Tuesday dammit. Anywho - some idiot with a rickety utility trailer passes us in typical JAFA style. For those newbies out there who are too lazy and un-interested to read previous blog posts, a JAFA is Just Another Fucking Albertan. I am ashamed to say the guy with the rickety trailer was from BC (let's all bow our heads for a moment of silence over this prick who OBVIOUSLY is originally from Alberta). As he was passing us at high speeds which my internal radar gun thinks was well over 110km/hr, the tire on his rickety trailer was blowing to pieces and shooting rubber everywhere. A piece actually flew in our open window and hit Trent in the neck! Good thing it didn't get one of the girls!
After the guy passed us a piece the size of a baseball actually came flying at the windshield and I put my hands up to protect myself. We both thought it was a rock! We made it thru and arrived in Cache Creek unscathed. It was a hot day but as we pulled in it started raining. Trent was VERY cold!
We met up with my parents for happy hour and made dinner. While relaxing with wine after dinner we caught a vision of this creepy dude smooshed up against his window. He was learning the way of the pool looking at the 12 year old girls. Creepy!
Tomorrow we are off early (I want to be on the road by 7 or 8 but we will see) and headed to Swinomish Casino in Anacortes for a couple of nights. We will do some shopping and tootling as Trent calls it, around La Conner. I think for him it's more tooting.....
We should have wifi at the casino so I will keep you updated! Have a great day at work and we won't be thinking of you! Just kidding!! Well not really.....ok maybe.....awe I'm just stalling because I hate goodbyes! Luv Luv to all!
Oh PS - sorry about my less than superior blogging skills tonight - I'm blogging from my ipad which mean I'm virginal. I will get this shit figured out! :)
So glad you are back on the road and blogging once again...happy travels!
