As always, you are welcome here if you need anything.

If I may make a recommendation on your trip, I would take Highway 12 across MT from Garrison to Forsythe. It isn't any slower than the interstate unless you have a car that can go 80 MPH the whole time, and it is a beautiful stretch of road.

Right on, i had it in my brain that you would be heading South first, not East. Well, if you do end up cruising through, would love to link up for a bite or beer if your schedule permits.

On the road... "THE FOUR CORNER FRENZY"

So....the big reveal is that I totaled Maisy. Completely and utterly DONE.

So this, is now a Rescue mission to drag the body home and bury her properly by tearing her to pieces and selling her to the highest bidder.

Driving a 2000 Lexus rx300
Buying a tow dolly near ATL
Pulling axles and rolling home.
Note the map is hitting 4 corners of the USA, hence the 4 corner frenzy. Wink

Mom and I are going to enjoy 12 pedal to the floor driving days, living to the max in a hurry Laughing at a safe speed limit with no texting and driving (want to guess why maisy crashed?)

Don't want to hear about texting and driving just save it. Keep this thread dedicated to the fun pics and bus porn. Kinky bus porn. Or just kinked bus. Laughing


Pics to come, left Seattle at midnight local time, just now crawling over i90....


On the road again!

the replaceable stuff can be fixed/ repaired / reworked/remembered

The not replaceable stuff was not hurt.

Life is good.

What's the rest of the accident story? You mentioned texting and driving? Did you rear end someone?

Glad you're ok.
