Important

Did you stop anywhere cool along the way?

9 days, I'd hope he stopped somewhere cool.

Badlands National Park, Black Hills, Devil's Tower, Bighorn Mountains, Beartooth Pass, Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, and a few other national forests that happened to be along the drive. One night in the jeep, 8 nights in my tent. Unfortunately I had to come back to civilization.
 
I love my Job. Turned in a work request for a toolmaker at 2:47pm, 5 and a half hours later i ask my boss to go see what the deal was. Apparently my work request never made it to him. Good thing I get paid by the hour and not the part. :D It was ready to go at 9 but the machine it feeds is out of parts. so I will start it in 3 hours!

Nice, I would love to be able to do that.

That is like the exact list of places I have put together for a trip I plan to take in a few years... I hate you... :moon:

Been to most of those places, some more than once, wish I could be at any of them right now. The natural beauty of our country is amazing, it is sad that so many that live here never get to see much of it.

So, last week sometime, I tried to upload some pics from a day at the dragstrip with some old friends. Comcast seemed to be kinda slow, but I thought the pics would upload eventually. Nope, didn't happen, and since then my internet has been ranging from fast as ever to Morse code telegraph slowness. 45 minutes on the phone the other day trying all kinds of dumbass shit and all I got was "the modem may be bad" . Went to the Comcast store to pick up one of their rental modems and the guy informs that since we also have their phone service we don't need a modem, and we can get a wireless router for free! Why didn't the guy I talked to know this, especially after I gave him our phone # for the account? Hooked up the router and a new USB wireless doohickey for the desktop today, and could not access the internet. Another hour on the phone and all I have now is the laptop hooked up directly to the phone modem thingy. And that won't even let me connect to comcast to check my email.... :gonnablow

Anyways...
Bunch of junky old cars :D










 
...and some not so old cars...







Yes, not one, but two Shelby Super Snakes. 750 HP, but didn't see them on the track...

Three of my tires were leaking, one of them bad enough that 4 days in I swapped on my spare, which is not exactly round, so that slowed me down a little. The synchro on second gear doesn't seem to be working all the time either. And my cooling is not working great, it kept trying to overheat on me, especially as soon as I crossed into Arizona. But otherwise everything held together just fine.

And yes, I did still have a little Haspin mud hanging on to contaminate Nevada.
