Day 16 - Pensacola, Florida

 

So today is just doing the 650  mile drive to Pensacola, Florida.  No time for any sightseeing.  I just want to get checked into the hotel, run for another night of Golden Corral for dinner and finally get back to my hotel and watch what hopefully will be the Knicks winning game 5 and with it the NBA championship. 

 

You do see one picture from today's drive. Here's the story behind the attached picture.  When I stopped at this gas station/convenience store that was their “mascot” in front.  The picture was warranted because a woman was walking with her 4-5 year old son into the store.  She was responding to her little boy who had just asked, “Mommy, why does that cow have the same things hanging like daddy has on the back of his truck?”  Mom’s answer, “Because that’s a boy cow and daddy has a boy truck.”  Texas mentality.

 

Another observation from the road... Mississippi does have the very nicest landscaped interstates.  Tomorrow it’s on to Trinity, Florida to visit with Dawn, Neil and Dawn’s Aunt Carol. If you're keeping score as of day's end I've driven about 6,500 miles. 

 

Now it’s watching the Knick game. Well as you all know by now the Knicks won the game and the championship. It was the first time they did that since 1973.
