Quit tailgating us!


Will you tell that guy back there to quit his following so closely?
He's so close I can barely see his head lights. Plus I don't see a driver at all.




Oh well guess he's missing a driver.



Hey dummy he's on the trailer, and connected to the truck you are riding in. No wonder he is following so closely.


Today, Bud and I went to Brunswick, Ohio to pick up this limo. (We called it the Pat Mobil.) We left at 7:30 a.m. Were loaded and headed back by 5 p.m.

We got it loaded after we had some trouble with the trailer ramps. Someone used it in the mud and left mud caked up where the straps needed to be hooked up.
I always cringe when he goes to putting a vehicle on the trailer.
Sitting with both feet on the brake of the truck so it won't move, I kept, say, a prayer. "Please let him get it onto this trailer with no problems, and stay on the trailer. "

And after he gets everything done and ready to roll, it is "Thank You Lord, Now give us a safe journey home."

We came back as far as I280 around Toledo, Ohio when we stopped for a delicious dinner this evening. Actually the first good food of the day. (I don't call a McDonalds egg and cheese biscuit breakfast.) It went plop, plop, and didn't last long at all. Other then that it was the peanuts and jelly beans with water and soda till we stopped tonight.





We stopped at Big Boy Family Restaurant to get my big boy some food.


My big boy is now in bed, since he only had 3 hours of sleep when we started out this morning as he had taken some gals to Chicago yesterday to see the Jonas Brothers show. He arrived home and in bed by 3:00 a.m. and up at 6:30 so we could get on the road.

A lot of times I don't go with him when he goes for these vehicles, but, Today being Saturday I decieded I would go. So, nothing was accomplished at our house today.

Believe we are only 5-6 hours out yet. Can't drive as fast as we did going over empty. After a number of hours of sleep I am sure our ride on home will go just fine. (I so wanted to sit in a hot tub)...NO hot tub just a heated pool, so Guess I will head back upstairs and try and read and get a bit of shut eye myself.

Hope everybody has a wonderful week end.

You certainly had an interesting Saturday, too , Verna. I haven't eaten at a Big Boy for a very long time, makes me hungry for some of their food. We don't have them up in this area anymore. Safe travels home.

I remember eating at Big Boy rest. when I was a kid - we don't have one in this neck of the woods.

Your posts always make me laugh.
Have a lovely Sunday evening.
