Auspice Needs To Move!

Meg

Just as an update! Auspice has made it as far as Colorado, alive and well! I cut my finger to pieces cleaning for her. We are ordering pizza; I am going to fill up her tank in the morning.

All is good!

I should have @Meg do all my future updates.

Long drive was long.

Tomorrow will be longer.

Someday I will get to sleep in (I think sometime next week).

Misadventure

Hang in there!

Meg and I have matching cats. Almost.

Ike is a little smaller and has a slightly bigger tuft of white on her chest.

After I wrap up work this morning, I will hit the road and head to my motel of choice tonight in Abilene. It'll be a 10 hour drive, not counting stops. The longest trek of the journey.

Am I the only one taking everything that Meg and Auspice have said in the last day as a series of euphemisms?

@WildBaboons

Well, not NOW.

Auspice

Just for @KDraygo

Abilene to Austin should be a short jaunt, at the very least.

That's why I chose Abilene. I knew if I didn't set the goal beforehand, I'd risk only driving a short ways today and leaving the long day for tomorrow and I didn't want that.

The hotel to apartment tomorrow is only 3.5 hours. Should be easy.

EDIT: Done work. Time to load up the cat and hit the road! Much thanks to @Meg for putting me up for the night, dinner, and fueling up the truck this morning.

Auspice survived the trip. Barbecue was had. That is all.

@Admiral BBQ from where with pictures??? I need to see Texan BBQ.

Auspice

It was thoroughly devoured.

Mostly I'm just thrilled to be able to get sweet tea again. Esp. since I no longer drink soda anymore. That was a big struggle on the drive. You do a long drive, you eat fast food. Fast food places largely just have soda. $:\$

ANYWAY. Yes! I am settled. Much much thanks to @Admiral and his roommate for helping unload. After loading the truck and driving all those days, I was still pretty noodly. Plus, because of them, we got it done pretty much just as it began raining.

@Misadventure http://www.stilesswitchbbq.com/ is the place. It was quite good. My favorite is another place, though.
