So back on the road...My sister driving, who is TERRIFIED of BIRDS... One flew right into the window and then somehow stuck in the front grill..I was responsible for dead bird removal at the next stop which was McDonalds...Where we met the guy we'd been following towing this trailer.....

I had to ask him what the story was. He was a strange weathered desert rat lookin' kinda guy...
He said he bought some property in Idaho that he was really looking forward to retiring on...then some people set up a meth lab on it and he found out about that when it blew up and they notified him..
He was really mad and found out there were 5 more meth labs around there. He was headed over to blow them up...oh and the thing he was carrying on the trailer was empty..I did not ask to see..just if I could take a picture. (I kinda wanted it to make a flower bed but I dared not ask..) and I wanted to know what was up with the hot orange accenting...

After that we got stuck on a highway behind a horribly overloaded uncovered semi full of corn...in a windstorm...we were running over corn..corn was pelting our windshield..corn corn everywhere. Then two semis passing collided in front of us flinging mirror parts..

We were VERY glad to get HOME.
