Home again. Finally.
I made a last minute trip to Houston TX last week to rescue my best friend from a tough situation. It’s a very long story that I will recount bits and pieces of soon but I am so tired right now and need some time to process it all. I flew down to Texas last Thursday, spent the weekend, then we drove home — from Houston to Vancouver — in 4 days. 42 hours of driving time. If you count stops for gas and food we were actually on the road for 54 hours. 4500 km across 7 states then into BC, Canada. Maximum speed with the 4.6L V8 was 144 km/h, hit by me while passing a big rig somewhere in Washington state. D was angry because until that point he had the record, and you know how guys are with their trucks. All I can say for now is WOW. And also, it’s a damn good thing that D and I watched a lot of Dukes of Hazzard when we were younger or we may not be alive right now.

if the situation you’re talking about is the one I think you’re talking about… I bet that was a mess.

mess is an understatement!
