My first almost country roads. Luckily they were county roads, so I just made sure to ray right inside the middle line so the scary grasping precipice wouldn't get the Bambino!

Sounds great! Are you staying in the Bambi or do we need to put out fresh flowers in the guest room?

J says guest room, the bahstid! Just a warning, I think my Detroit friends gave me a cold, so if you'd rather I quarantined myself. I TOTALLY understand!

We're brave, we just won't kiss you! It's all ready for you, just let me know when your planning on coming over? If you have time either go to the plaza or we could meet here and drive to the Plaza for dinner. Or if you would rather stay in we love to cook. Excited to see the Bambi!

Yay! Will let you know when we have a clue ourselves. This could take a while.

OMG, at Brad and Zell's, their Bambi is terrific! (And their house is gorgeous too!)
J backed me into their driveway. It took a few tries and some wear on the clutch, but he got me in beautifully; impressively, even!
Roll on the "You Can't Tow With That" Mayhem Rally! They have the VW Touareg, my dream TV!, so we were the mini VW/AS rally for a bit.

How fun Z!! I'm lovin' reading about your travels and also from the other streamers you're meeting along the route. I'm glad you made it to Brad and Zell's place. They sound like the perfect host & hostess! Of course, you're the perfect guest!! BTW, I cracked up when you said "bahstid"! It took me a second but too funny!
Well take care, have fun and safe travels the rest of the way home! ~Cari~

I would have joined you and Mcair for breakfast the other day but I was out on a first trip of my own... testing the Touareg. We definitely need a "You Can't Tow It With That" Rally. VW Rules!

Zlee and J hit the road toward Colorado! Zell and I are so fortunate to be part of the now infamous first trip! They are truly great people.

Shame we didn't get to meet J, him being a Brit and all. Still, Zlee's an honorary Brit so that's OK :~)
