Beating the Traffic

Last night I told Randy to let me know when he was ready to get on the road in the morning. He woke me up at 3 am and said "I'm ready". We were on the road by 3:30 and I have to say, the plan worked - we had very little traffic. There was an accident in one section which slowed us down, but otherwise it went OK. We stopped in Barstow for a quick breakfast at Hardee's. To our surprise, they weren't open yet. Turns out it was a few minutes before 6 am. By the time we took the dogs out, Hardee's opened and Randy got us a couple of sandwiches for the road. He always gets an extra one for the dogs to share and usually they scarf them down. For some reason, Shorty was having none of it today. He licked it, tasted it, and actually spit it out. He is getting to be such a food critic! Randy thought it was pretty funny; he doesn't like fast food, we only get it when we are on the road and don't want to lose time. Now he can say that even a dog won't eat fast food.

And now we are home, safe and sound, and very, very tired.
