Random Thoughts From the Road, Part II

Dan and I have arrived in Winnemucca for the evening and may actually fall off the vegetarian wagon for the amazing Basque food that is so popular here.

Pictures and stories from Salt Lake City and our tour of Temple Square will up sometime tonight but for now...

- It's amazing how tan you can get just driving in a car all day. Dan and I have strikingly dark tans, and my hair hasn't been this blonde since birth.

- Can someone remind me how hay can become so flamable? I was wondering this as we passed hay trucks on our journey, and I thought back to my Girl Scout camp days of lugging hay to and from barns.

- Are the South Park guys really conservative or are they just making fun of how ridiculus American society really has become?

- Are Mormons really as happy as they seem because they live a life abstaining from addictive stimulants like caffeine and nicotine?

- Life on the road can make you feel fairly stupid in a way. It becomes difficult to remember exactly what day it is, to think beyond "Does this exit have peanut M&Ms?" and find: gas, coffee, food, bathroom, bed for the night. Repeat again. Dan and I need t oget our verbal and written acts together before we have job interviews on Monday and Tuesday. Something tells me our potential employers would not find it so professional if we answered a question with, "Huh? Coffee? What? Shower now?"
