    Managed another 200 miles this afternoon...now at exit 93 on I-80.

    This, in spite of a woman in a VW who decided to pull off the icy shoulder on 80 and pretty much directly into my path. Many thanks, and Thank God, for the driver of the white Jeep to my left. He (or she) had just started to pass me. He was right along side the rear of my trailer when I guess he either saw what was transpiring or heard me blast my air horn...and hold it. He backed out of it quick, and gave me a wide berth to move left and avoid this pancake-wanna-be who seemed to be totally oblivious.

    I held the horn as I went by her. Gave the Jeep driver a friendly wave and a big thumbs-up as he went by, too. VW lagged behind for a few miles, then passed me but quick.

    Other than that....uneventful 200 miles. Unless you count the half-dozen four-wheelers and one big truck off the road....truck was on it's right side....wasn't a mega....couldn't catch the name, though....

    Sounds about like Friday for me... dodging Yellow doubles that can't make it up the hill to the tunnel, USA truck broke down in the granny lane (that's in the middle of the freakin' granny lane) with no triangles out...

    Finally moved from Mayberry (aka Brintle's in Mt Airy) over to the Petro in Mebane. They're callin' for more ice in the AM up in the hills. Wow 86 miles. Now THAT's an accomplishment!
