Hey everyone!!

I'm heading to Texas today to visit my family tonight! All the doggies are loaded in the car and we're headed out. Hold down the fort :)

Have a great trip, Spygirl! :)

Yay, Spygirl!!!

We are seeing quite a bit of activity in the midwest today. Merlin just passed Kansas City, and I am putting Gail at about Omaha shopping for smoked chickens and killer desserts. It's a bit strange that they have no idea they are just a few hours apart out there on the roads. But we do.

I sure wish I could go on a road trip! But I've got some VERY special people coming to visit me this week, so I guess I should stick around! :)

Oh no!! He might get arrested for premature indecent exposure. Couldn't he have waited at least until he got out of the bible belt?

Who do we know who could/would bail him out?

Bookworm! And if Bookie can't bail him out, Nightcrawler can break him out! Oh yeah, we got it covered.

Gee, I thought this vacation was for relaxing....didn't realize people would be getting nekkid!

Spy is heading through Texas at the moment. Tire debris hit the front of her car and she reports very minor damage. Lots of rain to make the drive even more exciting than it already was.

<wargod hopes theres not too much more excitement for her.>

Ah!!! But there is more excitement, Wargod. Now Spygirl has gotten into the middle of a police chase outside Fort Worth. She says that explains the 4 helicopters and the news crews all over the place. This gives a new perspective to being a road warrior. Go Spygirl, go, and everybody be sure to watch the six o'clock news.

Ack! Tess and Juju got me driving in circles in my folder. I think this belongs here! :)
Please refer to map in my folder for pertinent background information, if necessary...

Juju2bigdog said "Iowa! Head for IOWA, Bob!"

...Spongey turns car directly towards the sun in an attempt to intercept road trippers...

OK, Juju, I'll see if I can get to Merlin to give him a towel before the police catch him streaking in Iowa! If not, then maybe I can bail him out.

<...Spongey wonders how Merlin is holding magic hat while he drives with both hands...>

Thank you, Juju. I just got home and saw that I have phone-mail from our road warrior! I think by this point I would have pulled over and waited til all the nuts were off the road.

Bob......three words for you........one handed driving!

Ack! I had to turn around because I didn't have toll money. Hope I can get home in time for chat. I guess Merlin is on his own!

Bob, too late anyway. Merlin is even now bearing down (or up) on Minneapolis.

Spygirl has landed safely at her interim destination.

Thunder and lightening have brought two road warriors to their final destination... in 30 minutes they will tell you of their adventures in their own words!!!

WooHoo!!!

Sounds like it's Party Time! Have fun!

And I just collected bail money and a towel! Maybe some of the road warriors could make a pit stop down this way on the way home...

Spygirl

Made it to my family in Texas! It was a rather eventful drive home...but it seems that the damage to my car is fairly minor. I'll report it to the insurance company next week.

I'll be heading back east to DFW tomorrow to catch a flight out to Minneapolis! I'll make sure I "Spy_Phone" tomorrow

These road warriors are having a party, as we finaly reached our desired destination in the torrential rain, the clapping thunder, and blinding flashes of lighting, which seems to be a foretelling of our powerful time together.

After 25 hours of driving, and reading bunny tales (hehe), its a great joy to be here, and its great to know our fellow road tripper warriors, are enroute. We await their arrival with great anticpation.

Will someone clarify for me who exactly is going to RG's this weekend? I'm soooo incredibly jealous that you are all meeting. How in the world did I miss my invitation?? Hope you guys have a BLAST and make sure you fill me in on the next TVCH road trip. I'll be there!!

Spy, I'm glad you got the "kids" to their grandparents okay! What's this about the 6pm news and helicopters and damage to your car? You sure know how to take exciting Road Trips!
