Turning a 24 foot Ryder diesel truck towing a car into a Batmobile is quite a feat!

I can imagine her not only talking a trooper out of a ticket but also wrangling an apology from the trooper for having the audacity to delay them.

She isn't HRH for nothing.

How did she do that???!!! Wasn't she just in Arizona day before yesterday? Holy Toledo! Oh, I guess she's long past there.

She was in Texas yesterday morning or was it the day before??? I think ... Willi talked to her yesterday... all I know she sounded a little giddy and tired a little bit ago so they have been doing some steady 65mph driving!

(Bat cannot slow down because it is hard to get the truck back up to speed)

Just how did Fruitbat get the title of HRH, anyway? I'm not disputing it, but just curious.

Sage, HRH is kinda important and I think she was awarded that honorific by her loyal subjects. If you get a posse, and greatly entertain them, then I think you will have a special title in no time at all.

I see. Well I certainly don't consider myself to be very entertaining. So gathering up a posse to entertain seems a bit out of my league. I guess I will just have to settle for being one of the loyal subjects.

Sage, can I be a charter member of your posse? PLEEEEEAAAASE?

Okay, this a short update from last night. I am still at Merlin's. No, I didn't have a hangover this morning because I only had ONE glass of wine last night! Merlin is another matter all together

By the way, you guys would all do quite well working for The National Enquirer!

I didn't have any dinner last night, but when I woke up this morning there was a feast waiting for me, though Merlin had already left for work! Before he went to work he evidently gone to the grocery store, and oh my!

<Buttercup was a very happy camper seeing all of her favorite foods and beverages waiting....well, except for the midori pina coladas >

Phil was having a rough night adjusting to yet another new environment, so I didn't get much sleep. He seems to be getting more adjusted, and I am hoping that tonight is the night for me to SLEEP!!

<Buttercup wonders if she should mention that Merlin is asleep and snoring on the couch behind her....he'll never admit to it! >

Sure Soeur, I guess I can start one, so if you want to be in my posse, then I hereby deem you a charter member of the Sage Brigade.

I really don't know what we are going to be posse-ing, but what the heck.

*Sage wonders what the heck she is getting herself into.

I want to join too!!!

Sage

Yay Bookworm! There are now 2 charter members to this posse that was contrived by Souer, who I think is the real leader of the posse since she is the one who instigated it.

Isn't this way off topic though, for this thread?

Miss Sarah adores Miss Buttercup and thinks she should take the NORTHERN ROUTE for the rest of her journey.

What a very sweet picture that is! Thank you for sharing it, Butter. I think a northern route is a mahvelous idea.

What a sweet picture. You both are very photogenic. Happy times to you all!

I second the idea for the Northern route...by the way, WHERE in Pennsylvania is MsBat? She better not speed on I-80 OR the turnpike...many, many speed traps. But if you keep it to 70, they usually don't stop you.

<Marm wonders if MsBat could actually get the Ryder truck up to 70!>

And one word to Spy....AIRPORT!! The only place to meet quality single guys. <grin>
