The drive home from RI was fairly good. Nice weather, no traffic, and good company. Melissa I made some new friends while driving through New York. We shall call them speedy and Dino. Speedy was a mini van that couldn't figure out how to stay on the road. Along with this speedy would slow down and then shoot past us....just couldn't make up his mind.

Dino was a Uhaul. (there was a dinosaur on the side of it.) Dino liked to switch lanes alot, and didn't know that once you put your blinker on you have to also shut it off. Apparently there is no warning signal in a Uhale that tells you when your blinker has been on too long. Dino was similar to Speedy in that he kept slowing down and then speeding up. Dino however, unlike speedy, tried to run us off the road. Apparently he doesn't know what the side mirrors are for.

So, we shared the highway with these 2 fellas for about an hour. Try as we might we couldn't get away. Finally we decided to pull off and use the restroom. We pull back on the highway and it is free and clear. After a while we caught up to Dino....his wife was no longer in the car.?.? He was just pulling off to a rest area as we passed him. Melissa said it was prob. to dump the body.

We also caught up to Speedy. He was no longer speeding or swerving. His car was broken on the side of the road.

Great memories... Your stories always crack me up. Just FYI, though...I think it was probably a UHAUL, not a Uhale... :)
