Good Drive On Good Friday

I drove to the Kennedy Mall in Dubuque
I went to Hallmark and got my favorite ornament
It's Clark Griswold from National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
He is holding up a knot of Christmas lights to put on the roof of the house
There is dialogue from that scene that plays when you press a button
I also got The Far Side page a day calendar, one for me and one for a friend
I drove around after that and just looked at all the cars and all the shoppers
Then I drove to Kieler and played a pinball game, but the ball got stuck
Then I drove to Walmart in Platteville and played my motorcycle racing game
I got second as my best out of three times
I counted the road signs on the way and averaged over 10 signs every mile
Mile marker signs, speed limit signs, advertising signs, wrong way signs
Lots of metal posts with information on them
The best part of driving for me is singing
So I had about two hours of that
I hope your Thanksgiving and Black Friday were fun too!

It's great to have some spare time to shoot the breeze and just enjoy some stress free moments.
