While I was bound for my destination, last Friday, I drove through a pounding thunderstorm.

I could see it was getting kind of ugly in front of me, so I checked the radar, and the radar was all full of purples and crimson's.

Like, it's coming down really hard.

Those are not the colors you want to see on the radar?

And then once I got into it, it was next to nothing visibility. You could barely see

the car in front of you and the guy in front of me didn't have tail lights. When he hit his brakes,

his lights would go on. But we were going down to like 10, 15 miles an hour at times. People

were pulling over. I did not because I figured, I saw the way the system was going. And if I could just see dotted lines or the line on the right and keep it going straight, I could get out of that a little quicker. But a lot of people were pulled over the side of the road. There was a semi, I was northbound and a semi-southbound got blown over. So there were some horrible winds. And I can't find a report of what happened to that guy. I hope he's all right. But the southbound lane was backing up and finally we got out of it. God, that was a white knuckle harrowing experience. Yeah, I hate that crap. That sucks. So if I was going to die at any point in my vacation, that would have been the likely time. On the way to the boundary wallers, right? On the way there.

Well, we got today off at least.

I don't know if he died last Friday.

We already had a vacation week.

Yeah, we might take another week, too,

maybe, who knows? I'm glad that you didn't die, Todd.

I hate stuff like that. There's nothing you can do.

I know. That part, because it's, you have to, if you have to depend on the people behind

you, not to just race right into you, too, for that better. Right. That's why I decided to

keep moving because, you know, nobody can see you. No. Right.

Miss Universe was killed by an elk.

You see that?

Yeah.

What an odd way for a Miss Universe to go.

I know.
