Hey Dave,

Thanks Man! I'll keep you guys posted.

I know what you mean, my wife usually drives through NY, PA and central Ohio, but when we get within that sliver of black king range in SE Ohio, I take over and man the wheel until GA (where we don't dare stop for anything - especially with a car full of show stock).

In all my years making that trek from Buffalo to Daytona and back, all that I've seen road cruisin' was a screamer male eastern box turtle during a lightning storm just northwest of Charleston W. Virgina. I saw this glowing orange and black orb with bright red eyes on the side of US79 in the downpour. After slamming on the brakes and nearly killing us, I just held the boy up, did the happy herper dance in the rain and shooed his arse off the highway...ah good times.

We're both a little sad that we are not making the journey this year. It has become an annual pilgrimmage that we both really enjoy.

Have fun guys and gals and pound a couple for me on Friday night!

Thanks!

Will
