Road trip

If the crew of Gilligan's Island took a three hour trip to Williston, it would be nothing like being stuck on an island. There were no storms on the way over to Williston, but I did have tailgaters. I had people who would pass me and not in the passing lane. I would be listening to the talk shows just to keep my mind alert. My mom made the trip for years listing to public radio. I don't know how she did it. I do not travel alone, but my passenger travels in a cage in the back seat. He is a doggy with a independent personality. I have taken him from his lizard catching environment and placed him on thirteen acres to chase rogue roosters. There is only one rooster who is suppose to rule the hen house. However, two from next door are trying to move in on the main rooster's territory. I have passed my favorite barbeque place in Deland, Florida. (Sonny's) I like their garlic bread and french fries and slice pork. I also like their bake beans and a big giant glass of ice tea with lemon. I got caught up in the flow of the traffic and very rarely stopped to enjoy the sights. There was a big giant bridge I cross and had trouble seeing the water underneath. It also has a famous river which the writer "Marjorie Kinnon Rawlings" traveled.

  1. You're making me hungry with your description of the food at Sonny's barbecue. I realling liked the book The Yearling by Marjorie Rawlings. I would like some day to visit her home which I believe is now a state park. Whay are the names of the cats? Lew
