*grins* I know that song ... very well. In fact, it debuted on the country charts on 1/24/07, spent 22 weeks on the charts, topping at #1. It's one of my favorites of theirs.....

Not completely, no. I can't say I'm pessimistic about my situation, but I'm not overly enthusiastic about it either. Medical bills play a big part into my "budget planning". But, gas, not so much. I think that is the case because something medical can be much more "catastrophic" than the amount I spend on gas each month, winter AND summer. Sadly, I'm not making anywhere near the hypotheticals in Northie's original post.

Yes, seeing you then certainly would've been nice. I know how bad I feel for having missed a number of people on my road trip that ended yesterday.

*chuckles* Tell me somethin' I don't know . But ... why are you jealous? Look at the trip you took out to Oklahoma earlier this year! *pauses* Course, you didn't get a chance to stop here as you had planned ... he heh. And ... YES ... one day I WILL get to MA . Future ... loving driving (and, of course, meeting people) are why I have done these for a while now. I've just been able to document the ones in the last few years. Sadly, I missed out on documenting my 2003 road trip like I have the last few.... I just wish more people wanted to and/or were able to meet up. I keep seeing people's locations ... and thinking, my goodness, I'll be in their town ... do they know? Would they want to meet up? I've thought about PMing people on the various boards ... but, that would get very time-consuming ... he he. Besides, I can't keep track of all that ... wish I could . Course, I also wish I could road trip 24/7!!! Hmmm....OK ... just a few more hours ... and I'll be on the road ... driving SOUTH ... and looking forward to the meet ups along the way! 847.Cort:34swm."Mr Monte Carlo.Mr Road Trip".pig valve.pacemaker 337.WRMNshowcase.lego.HO.model.MCs.RT.CHD = http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort 9897."Windows open on the rest of the world" ...

A Platinum Metallic (silver) 2008 Buick LaCrosse (rental) will be my ride for the road trip. It has just over 5,910 miles and still has the temporary IL tag.... Since Enterprise didn't have a Dodge Charger for me, they let me have the LaCrosse at the same price.... A few people have asked why I "road trip" and meet people along the way. Maybe these 3 pictures will illustrate why.... From my October 2004 road trip west: http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/0410/Oct%2...ssicr8_jpg.html From my August 2005 road trip east: http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/0508/Aug%2...0gdtmn_jpg.html And, perhaps, my favorite ... because of what ChevyTalk's Dennis (DeeGee) and I discovered over an interesting dinner conversation during my October 2006 road trip west: http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/1106/DSC07591r8_jpg.html Packing is almost done ... and I'm just about ready to go. I'll relax through Thanksgiving Day ... and then hit the road bright'n'early Friday morning. BTW ... Lunch in Knoxville TN will be at the BridgeView Grill, 900 Neyland Dr It's not too late to plan to meet up, but since I will have limited access (if any?) online while I'm away, the best way to reach me is my cell phone: 847 - 337 - 9897 I look forward to seeing some of you along my travels!
