3 days and counting. The Jag is prepped, safety checked and clean - like a racehorse champing at the bit, she's ready for who knows what. I've assembled my emergency road kit, tools, spares, etc. But she is a 36 year old British car, so....
My goal is to eat 300 miles a day (bad back) without touching an Interstate Hwy. We'll go top down only. No fast food and no reservations - anywhere. No computers, phone calls (cell for emergencies only), office issues, politics and no television. I haven't any deadlines at all. Just me, my new Sony Discman and an agreement in 3 days time to meet my best friend from high school in Portland. From there, we'll head East (maybe) and eventually South (for sure) with an estimated return to SF in a week or 10 days.
I've assembled my emergency road kit, tools, spares, etc. But she is a 36 year old girl, so who knows. My buddy Geoff and I did this half a dozen times as young dumb studs but school, Vietnam, work, marriage, kids and life has gotten in the way of a life-long friendship.
Wish me luck, sunshine and a fair wind at my back.........Yippie! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/driving.gif
