Morons on I 95, porch flowers, anoles and baby toes!

8-18-14

Travelling all day is not as much fun as it used to be! Three hours from Quantico to Baltimore. The radio (when it was working) traffic update: High volume traffic. I call it idiotic drivers, construction, more construction, rubberneckers checking out folks getting tickets, some more construction, and then a car fire. That was the first 30 miles, then we hit Springfield...

Note to all of you loyal readers, please don't be that driver who ignores the lane ends, please merge signs. I'm pretty sure that the only excuse for ignoring those signs is inability to read (in which case you wouldn't have a license and be driving) so really there are no excuses and the only reason you didn't merge is you are a moron. No gray areas on this one! 

My favorite was the 20 minutes to travel one mile to see a truck in the left lane picking up traffic cones in the left shoulder. Enough said.

All the morons delayed me two hours so only made it to DE and had to stop as I promised not to drive after dark. I found a great place and pricelined it from my phone. Not wanting to be out and about after dark, decided to stop and pick up some KFC to take to hotel and devour after check in! 

What a deal! 2 pieces of chicken, mashed w/gravy, biscuit, sweet tea and a warm chocolate chip cookie all for five bucks. The cookie made my day!!

Backtracking just a tad, wanted to share some pictures. Went out and checked all the porch flowers before I left and one of my two little Anole friends was hanging out and came down to say goodbye. No tree frogs wanting to say goodbye though. Note middle pic is a mum blooming way early this year!

Also, the cats weren't too thrilled to see a suitcase coming out but at least they'll have Joe home with them! Lucky Joe!

Hopefully they'll behave themselves and not cause too much trouble while I'm gone! 

Final thought: as promised cute and adorable pic of my newest grand baby! Baby toes are irresistible!
