quickie phone update

we've been on the road for the past 30 or so hours, with a 5 hour break at a tiny motel in oklahoma to rest. The countryside is slowly becoming quite different. It's gorgeous here, with the reaching horizon, dotted with small, dense shrubbery and low lying clouds. I appreciate the unique beauty of Texas. Surprisingly, it reminds me vaugely of Greece.

We should arrive at our first campsite tonight around 7pm cst. I think this trip is going to be amazing. :)

Bus Love

I spent 4 hours today learning how to drive the big orange bus.

This is not the first time I've had such an adventure, indeed I've spent many hours learning to drive this beast, and even failed my CDL exam once (so far!).

This time was different. This time was spectacular. We stopped for donuts. And I managed to successfully back into the stall twice. Yay!

I am kind of looking forward to retaking my CDL test, in a sick and twisted way...
