Subject: RE: Bill and Allans Excellent Adventure
This is great! Just incredible! We are having the time of our lives! (Then again, we always are aren't we? Think about that...)

Both Bill and I are renouned for our navagational abilities. However, the past two days (when not meeting 'Catters) have been spent getting UN-lost! It has been comical. On the good side of that, we have gotten to see parts of the south we had not scheduled to see. Yesterday we got the car washed by rains which were driven by winds associated with something the weather service never quite called a tornado. We were not on the road at the time. So we were able to sit back and watch the entire storm as it drove the rain horizontally to the ground.

This brings up another thought. No, we were not able to locate a proper Plastic Jesus for the trip. We have instead a Folk Troll who peers out at the world from the driver's side of the car. He is a lovely beast and has brought us good fortune at each of our stops.

Ah-h-h the stops!

The Espresso Corner gig was quite an event. My girlfriend, Kathy, had created a wonderful poster of which I had made copies and had spread all over town. Zillions of folks at the college had promised to come. Guess what. About thirty all told - only one of which was from the college. I was a little bummed out. But it was a great crowd anyway.

Moonchild tell me that dinner is ready. I must go. More later.
