Road trip

Moselle, Mississippi: worst bathroom in America

Butte, Montana: a boring place to spend the day while Johnny's car gets a new fuel pump. Most of the kids in WalMart look like they are trapped in Hell. Also, everyone kept referring to his car as a "Ford Exploder."

And now a new entry on the list of places to avoid on road trips: Dunkirk, OH.
Because of vague internet directions, we weren't even supposed to be there. Here are the series of events as we headed from Columbus to Ada. We stopped at an intersection, drove through the intersection, got hit by a car coming down the road that we were crossing. I got some bruises on my arm and side from my airbag. Everyone else is ok, except the cars. After the accident we made it to Ada, got the posters, and drove 7 hours to St. Louis in a car with doors that wouldn't close properly. We covered the door with tape and stuffed it with a t-shirt to dampen the noise. We stopped and got ice cream in Indiana. That made everything better.

Don't mention it to Jen. She's a little upset.

Jen had just finished talking to Ed about it, so she wasn't in the mood. Plus, we were all ok so it wasn't that urgent.
