… the honey shot

Posted Thursday, July 31st, 2008 at 6:19 am

… i wanted to letchoo all know that i’m gonna fall silent for about a week or so due to a road trip planned with my gal. we’re off to her family reunion back in michigan. yesh, we’re driving and it should be fun. the plan is to get there in about 30-36 hours or so of straight driving. and yesh, i said driving. thankfully, we’ll not be driving behind this ‘disaster waiting to happen!’ insert your appropriate puns now. (sh*t happens, tippy-kai-ewwww, ‘there’s the honey shot,” etc.)

for the record, my friend Dan, of RECTIFY fame and fortune took the pic of his yuppie iPhone. needless to say we quickly passed this smelly disaster on our search for lunch!

why drive the miles?? simple. costs nowadays are amazing. it would’ve cost me over 1600 bucks to fly us, and as you prolly know, you can’t take a rental car 2-3+ states over and have it “covered” insurance-wise, so that leaves my leetle hybrid SUV which actually gets about 600+ mpg on highways. those straight and narrows are primo conditions for those badass batteries to kick in. yeaaahhh boyeeeee, the Saturn VUE’s 14 gallon tank will be jus’ fine!

so… expect pictures upon my return, both from my gal and yours truly. maybe some stories, adventures, and hopefully no mishaps. we’ll be in the U.P. (hip talk in Michigan for “upper penninsula”) and then off to Kalkaska for the actual reunion.

lurve to you all, have a great upcoming week, and i’ll be in touch! wish us luck!

    Have a great trip. I look forward to the photos. There is another trip in the offing for me. Mid-August I visit my brother in El Paso. Booked the flight about three months ago. Would love to drive the new Si, but….

    Have a great time. btw, I believe Karen lives around there, the UP, somewhere.

    Ah, so, yer in my neck of the woods, eh? The UP is bea-u-ti-ful country! But, I’m quite a bit south of there. I’m about 50 miles north of Detroit.

    Looking forward to the pics.
