3/19
today started with a growl. literally. Susan's parents dog, an 'adorable' pit bull, decided to 'play' with their cat. after hearing susan screaming for spectator support, I ran to the back of the house to see the cat clawing the shit out of Hercules' already BLOODY face!! getting the two separated (and he all cleaned up) was a nice start to our second travel day !!

THEN, a few scant miles from the Florida state line gave a state trooper all he needed to pull me over and ticket me for 80 in a 55. definitely was going over 55, but nowhere near 80. at least in the area he pulled me over !!! damn, first ticket in years !!
