August 26, 2011 SHAKE, RATTLE, & ROLL RUN Chapter 1 - Meet Tommy Tiger
|
This trip's mascot is
Tommy Tiger, a gift
from Interstate
Auto's Moose Hase
when Jay was in
the hospital awhile
back, and is named
for his grandson,
Tommy, Mike's son.
Rollin', rollin', rollin'...
though our butts are swollen,
Rollin' thru Ellanoise...rawhide!
Biffy stop, biffy stop, biffy biffy
biffystop...still another Wisconsin Taj
Mahal of biffies on the road.
And all roads (ours, anyway) lead to
Culver's.
Tommy saw the Paw
Paw sign and said,
"Hey, they're two paws
short, aren't they?"
The sign read, "Eat here and get gas." So we did, for
$3.59 a gallon.
After spending most of a l-o-o-o-n-n-n-g day driving across Illinois, we finally
decided to roost for the night in Danville, IL, just in time to enjoy this beautiful
sunset. A tiring but wonderful day together. Wow! 9:35pm...way past time to
zonk out. Gotta get an early start tomorrow. Up with the chickens. Yecchh!
