Nice to see you made it back safely.

And now you know why I travel alone

I"m looking forward to the pictures, it is a damn shame you didn't make it out to the west coast. Next time, eh?

Your friend is a lazy sack of shit, be sure to tell him for me.

Sounds like a nice trip though. But without pics I call bullshit!

we made it back physically safe but mentally fucked up. We saw a PT cruiser get run off the road by a semi. It flipped and the dude got tossed out. That really mind fucked us it was the worst thing i've seen with my eyes

i know its really sucks i wasnt able to make it to the coast since thats what i wanted to see the most

You were within 20 minutes drive of me, if you were standing under the Arch. Too bad you didn't snap a few pics of the view from the top of the Arch while you were there. The movie they show in there is getting a little long in the tooth.
