I was at the local auto repair yesterday getting a slow leak fixed in one tire on my Rebecca’s car. So, I’m looking around the funky scene there in between chatting with Don my buddy who owns the place. Some of the stuff on the walls has been there since the glaciers melted it seems. I started reading this metal sign which listed the distances to various destinations that you could drive to like after Don fixed things. The places on the sign were in miles from the near city of Tacoma. So, I’m running down the list and there are various towns and cities in Washington and Oregon, so may miles to Yakima, the Dalles, Walla Walla. I’m thinking that sounds like fun, a little drive.

So, I’m reading down and I see Chicago and then Miami at 3353 miles! Wow, that would be a trip to see Alida. But who drives that far anymore? It brought me back to my younger years when I probably drove across the country a dozen times sometimes just for the heck of it. Well, Alida you will have to wait on a road trip from me for a while. It does sort of sound like fun though.

OK, big football game today for the Seattle Seahawks. If they win this one they will be headed to the Super Bowl! Yea, wish us luck. Love you, Felipe.
