Wed. Dec. 19 - After Charlotte, Cory, Tom and I loaded the Penske truck with the contents of his Denver condo, we headed east. This was a Christmas road trip. Two thousand, two hundred (more or less) miles of interstate: I 70 - I 64 - I 57 - I 24 - I 75 (more or less) should get us to his and Halie's new apartment in Pembroke Pines.The weather was bright; the road was dry; the conversation flowing.
We put into Hays, Nebraska for the evening. Ate a a brew pub that was not really a brew pub, but it was right next store to an Auto Parts place that supplied some additional tie-downs for the Vespa which, being the last item but the most precious item we are carrying, needed some extra care to stay upright against the side of the mighty Penske.
