He guys sorry it took me so long to post. But I made it to Texas fine and dandy like. I met my friend Scott at his parents place in Colorado, like 9,000+ feet up in the mountains. Beautiful place and his parents are very nice laid back people too which was really kewl. The whole trip there I was thinking "Damn this is weird, I don't know this dude from a hole in the ground, just what I know from talking with him online over the last 7-8 months. He could be like this anal rapist and wanna poke my chocolate starfish a few times before lobbing my head off with a twig and watching it beat me down the mountain at 50 mph while making bets with his dog which piece of me is gonna make it down first". I drove through Montana and Wyoming to Colorado. Took me about 12.5 hours to do that trip, and another 3 or so to go through Rocky Mountain National Park. Which by the way I do not recommend doing at 1am. Scary as hell being 12,200 feet up on roads that have no safety rails. I was so damn tired going through there I almost went off a few times. Was freaky shit. Got to Scott's parents town at 2:30am where I tried to phone Scott from a pay phone but didn't work, so I called collect to my sister’s place and had her call Scott for me. Scott came down from the Mountains to meet me at the store in the town. Was weird seeing him in person for the first time, and at 2am, dark as hell outside and damn cold too. I followed Scott back to his parents place up in the mountains. I was too tired to care about the house when I got there; I just followed Scott to my room, shook his hand as he welcomed me to the USofA and went to bed. Got up around 9 am the next morning to meet his wife and 2 kids in a house I couldn't believe I was in, all the while taking in as much of the scenery as I could through all the big ass windows that over looked out over the valley. Was very beautiful, I have pictures that I will put up as soon as I can. By the way, the whole left side of my body was burnt red from the drive. I looked funny as shit in the morning when I awoke there and looked at myself in the mirror. I had to laugh. lol. I’m pealing now though... yeah! I went with Scott and his family to a free breakfast down in the town and had blue berry pancakes and some sausages. Was pretty good. After that we went to the ski park to look around and went for a drive around the mountains then headed back to the house. When there I met his parents and we ate BLT's. We stayed with his parents until July 4 (Monday, I got there Saturday morning) at which time we left back through Rocky Mountain National Park so I/we could see the park in the day. I so recommend anyone who comes to Colorado to visit the park. It is so beautiful (I have pictures), well worth the $20 USD I paid to get in, and, it is good for 4 days I believe. So 20 bucks for 4 days pass through the park is not bad. It took us about 3 hours to get through the park. We then started our way to Texas through Colorado flatlands. Was a very boring drive the way we went, but we went that way because it was faster and didn't go through any major centers, mostly small towns and cities. Scott and I had 2way radios we used to communicate while driving though, we didn't use them much. At one time during the trip I keyed up and said "2 E CP!" (if you play AAO you know what I am talking about) hahaha funny shit! While driving through the small towns at night the people were celebrating 4th of July by firing fireworks off all around, which was pretty neat to see all these fireworks going off miles away as you approached the towns. We finally made it to Ft Worth at about 6am just as the morning traffic was starting. Shit there was more people on the roads then there are people in my damn home town, amazing it was. I had to drive like a retard in order to make my way through some traffic to catch back up with Scott. Crazy shit. We got to his place, unpacked the vehicles and went to bed. I think I got up around 3pm and Scott and I went for a drive around the city. He showed my where his buddies lived and things like that. We ended up going to a bar to meet some of his friends and have some food and a few beers. All his friends so far are very cool people, I like them all so far. Hope they like me? Well it is late already and I have to be up early so I will cut this short. I'll finish it up later when I get the chance. Talk with y'all in a few. posted @ 01:01 AM CST [link] |
