Back in Austin Again...Pecan Grove ,Bee Caves and Bat's at Sundown!

What a great City....got rained on today as I ran the riverwalk and it felt good, had soggy shoes but a great time....had some dinner at Carlos Santana's Maria Maria....and I met a gal named Sammy!

Fort Lauderdale & Miami are still Fun(with a gun)

Like the old saying goes "Ya get more with a smile and a Gun than just a smile" my first night in Fort Lauderdale and a Taco Bell Manager was shot and killed....sad day, I drove by that morning and saw the crime scene tape....then on Friday traffic was stopped 6 hours on Miami's busiest freeway after some road raged guys shot another driver dead in morning traffic....never made it into the City that day, just as well....I don't think i could live here again, but a visit is always nice.

Oh I got some SPLAININ TO DO!

Atlanta's VARSITY for a Grease Job? I just looked and my LDL jumped 30 points.
Lets see, I was headed south to ATLANTA....Richmond was.....well I just kept going...they have bad Highway designs...lots of blind spots and places where you can get into a spot but not out of a spot....or into a situation , but not out of a situation without losing some skin as the President would say.

They Developed the Freaking BUCKHEAD out of existince, I used to love going there and hanging with Charlie Minor and REM , Eddie Money and I shared a limo one night, but that was 24 years ago when Hotlanta had soul, here's your Buckhead Now! STEEL & GLASS up your ---!

1. I stayed out in Marrietta , where I met a former Detroit auto worker in her 40's and her parts were still in good condition...we enjoyed lunch and the 38 special band tribute until the train & rain came down.

Vermont , Lake Champlaign,Montreal

Cruised up to Vermont (went thru the big dig) and it was like winter cool ....Ben & Jerrys is located in Middlebury and it's just as well cause I did not need any more calories after flapjacks and real maple syrup in Hero VT.

Boston & New York .V/O session

The Cape and Dennisport.......lots of white-legged red headed folks!

Saw Stephen Wright at the Melody Top "theater in the round" 45 minutes is all one can take of his Circular set!

The Tall Ships were in Boston Harbor....but parking or as they say in Beantown, tryin to Pawk Ya Caw is a real Pissah!

Chowder Heads & Cranberry Bogs

Cape Cod is pretty and it is a great place to Escape the routine, but avoid the Fried Fish & Chips, although they are tasty treats....it's all over when your trying to loose a lbs....I saw Stephen Wright at the Melody Tent.....funny yes, but an hour of that monotone routine in the round borders on a bad sermon at a High Mass !

New York, New York,Shumar's Fork of Pork

New York City Drivers are THE WORST! I spent ? HOURS on the George Washington Bridge and the holiday traffic was bad but New Yorkers will cross 4 lanes of traffic sideways to get from the EZ-PASS to the CASH only lane & vise-versa....if you have a nice car, your dead meat...they figure you wont risk a fender bender......There's one Lucky guy in a Fourunner that missed me by less than an inch! "as they say in Jersey ... Forget About it!
