Three for The Road

A few days ago I was on my way from a short trip to Niagara Falls, and the drive back was one I just can't possibly forget. From getting a speeding ticket for an amount that I would rather not share at this time, to having an on-coming car driving in the wrong lane I thought I'd seen it all.

Although the ticket was produced not even 1hour after I began the 5hour journey, I tried not to let it predetermine the remainder of the trip.


With that being said the next stop I gave up the drivers seat, and by this time a few hours had passed and I finally calmed my nerves about the horrendous ticket. Drinking in the scenery as passenger in our expedition I checked out others trekking along. Now about two hours away from home I spotted this wicked colored transport.

As usually look up to see the driver for no particular reason, and as we pass the neon bright purple and turquoise truck I noticed a sign taped to his window, and quickly read it- "Show me your Hooters!". I quickly grab my camera and snap a shot, the second one y
ou can actually see his face looking at me...a little disappoint might I add. heehee

I never saw this before, but I am sure it happens quite often without the sign.




Less than an hour had passed and no sooner did we just get over the laughter from the dissatisfied trucker we ran into another bewildered moment. At this point in our drive we're commuting on a double lane highway that is now split from on coming traffic, as it is separated by a strip of land of about 20-30 feet wide or so.

All of a sudden, around the bend I can see a set of lights, but I refuse to admit what I am seeing. There's an on-coming car driving down in the passing lane.. on our side of the highway. How is this possible?! [honk!] We're honking for the person' attention, but being as prudent as possible so we pull off the road away from him. Still driving, but slower.

Whoa! That was so close, and I can't believe he didn't no
tice that there was another road going in the same direction on the other side of a strip of land. We figured that he must have been driving down for at least 20minutes from the next rest stop and got confused coming out, as it would have been stationed to his right.

In any case, I heard nothing on the news in result to it, and the remainder of our trip was pretty much standard.



Oh right, a few pics of the Falls. Heehee
