So funny. Driving back from Chicago with Hardiman and out daughterling, Sunday and Monday, I kept looking for Biskit, and his distinctive eggplant-colored cab. At each rest stop, I'd jokingly call out, "Biskit! Where are ya man???" I was SURE he was out there, and that we might run into him at any moment.

Came home to find 3 phone messages-- he would be on that same route the day AFTER we actually got home. If we had just delayed our departure one more day, as we wished to, we'd have run into him at a rest stop I am sure!

Unfortnately we were not abe to link up with him today.

As we drove, I couldn't help noticing all the large metropolitan areas that appear to lack Mudcatters. We are too damn spread out for convenient travel. Cleveland! Erie! Jamestown NY! I'd have stopped there too!
