On the Road Again 🎶 : Day One

This is what it looked like most of the Day...

Sometimes the clouds sat on the highway.

Somewhere west of Pittsburgh, the sun broke through for a couple of hours; then, the rain conditions descended again until I pulled in for the day just east of Columbus, Ohio. The spray from cars' and big trucks' tires creates a brilliant, yet opaque mist, that in turn creates intense alertness. Whew!

My pony is resting outside and I am comfortably inside a very decent motel that I didn't mind handing over more dollars than my upbringing usually allows me to enjoy paying. The front desk person did make a very nice dent in the price thanks to AAA or AARP or maybe it was just because I'm old. And they have a full breakfast. Yea.

As soon as I straighten out the date mistake I made on Aidan's cello chair audition with PYAO which is this coming Sunday, not last Sunday as I wrote, I will fold up shop and enjoy the comfort of the bed in the nice room I'm in.

Sadly, I will miss the playoffs for his summer soccer team on Saturday. But here's what the playing field looks like at his school for their soccer games. As you see, they have red uniforms, too. Aidan proudly wears his Number 10 for the school team.

This was yesterday afternoon. They were warning up as I walked from the parking lot with my chair, bug repellent, and water bottle. It rained some during the game.
