8/7/24-8/9/24 Visiting with friends
My friends in Spearfish are long time friends. Heck, he taught me to play D&D some 45 years ago or so. We’ve been gaming and sharing. Nice stop before I get back home to something resembling normalcy.
8/10/24-8/12/24 The sprint home 1233 miles
To my great surprise, the trip home didn’t take 3 days. Why? Because I didn’t stop at 8 hrs of driving. Both days I drove ten plus hours. It got me home by the afternoon of the second day.
I did have to take a detour from my normal route because my highway was closed because of a forest fire. But this only added about 20 minutes to my trip. This detour through the Rainier National Park was the bumpiest road I think I’ve ever driven. My kidneys took a beating.
Thus the Great Road Trip comes to an end. This trip was a rollercoaster of, unfortunately, mostly downs—FIIIIIIVE DAYS OF COVIDDDDDDDD, four internal trailer failures, three major automotive issues, two missed conventions (and a partridge in a pair tree), and overall income down 25%. On the good side was connecting with you all again. Your love of the books really is the thing that makes authors keep writing.
See you next year, hopefully with a much better time!
