Head'in home

Head'in home .....Made it from Concord NC to Asheville....seems the night security, ( even thou they're a crack team ) let one slip by last night....The A/C in the old Dodge blow'en hot air, decided to stop here till I can have it looked at tomorrow am.....and just on western edge of Charlotte a PT Cruiser clipped a u-hall and flipped over after crossing 4 lanes and striking center barrier...was 4 cars back, but she missed us....she got thrown into pass. Seat and half out the windo . Thought she was a memorie... Stopped and blocked traffic and with a few others, we lifted up the car up so she could be removed....scarey day.

It amazes me just how many people think so little of life that they drive without safety belts.

So when we observed you on the driveway with the dog looking at the atlas and you talking, it actually worked?

By the way, tried to pay with the money that was used in this area a few years back, but they said ( the South won't rise again ) and wanted that Yankee green...feature that! (Plastic worked).

I wondered where some of Frankie's Confederate money went.

I'm surprised they took any of them, all 16 of them have been maxed out for years. They keep threatening, but we just get another one and keep on keeping on.

You can't still be driving, that old Dodge won't run that long, so you must be napping. Where is y'all at?

Hay don't pay any attention to OC, glad your co pilot got a nap. By the way did you notice OC'S spelling Y'All. I remembered in his garage about him giving us spelling lessons.... Have a safe trip home. It was a pleasure spending some time with you. You are really OC West. As far as B&B post only grump was OC East. But that is just him....
