Yesterday, Lethal Les and I hit the trails early in the morning in my trusty grocery getter, the Saturn Vue. We spent the day exploring the roads on the west side of our county (Volusia) and neighboring counties; Lake & Marion.

We discovered a lot of beautiful traveling roads that neither one of us knew existed. We did a lot of over the river and through the woods deals that I know you all will enjoy. By the end of the day Leslie and I accomplished the route book instructions for Day 2 of the tour.

Sorry for the delay as we were back out working on the route. As soon as it is done, I don't see why not.

Lethal Les and I hit the road again this time our agenda was for Day 4 and the first part of Day 5. Everything was going along as planned. However, Les decided to bring a book with her as she thought there may be some distances between directional changes. WRONG. For years I have encouraged her to read and now I'm actually yelling at her to put the book down and pay attention.

For about an 1 1/2 hours there I thought we were going to kill each other. Roads were not clearly marked, others were one ways, geeze....in the end it wasn't either of our faults, just a poor map we got from AAA.

Our route planning now done for the day, we start our trek back to Daytona. Remember the book she couldn't put down? It was put down in favor of checking out the backside of her eyelids.

Yeah, a Pantera and several Austin Healeys. Okay, Les like the Pantera as well since she had never seen one. I said you know if you had batted your eyes a little more he may have given you a ride.

Heading out on Wednesday with Tommy (son dork) and a friend of his. Our mission is to see if 2 teenagers can read the route instructions and not get lost. I get to sit and say nothing and take notes... We should have a good time provided no stinking Hurricanes hold us up.

BTW Sarah, Eric has no sense of direction, and cannot read a map. It should be fun!
