2nd part-y


I am currently sporting my Owl City onesie that my sister purchased for me as a birthday present. This is the photo of the onesie from the merchandise website:



As you can see... No photo of the back side was featured. Just a picture of the graphic. To my surprise (and actual delight) these wondrous feet pajamas have a butt flap. A trap door that velcros on the behind to make it easier to pee. Although occasionally it can be drafty and slightly awkward to wear around company.



Catch my drift!? hahaha

Ok here goes part 2 of my road trip across the U.S....

Our next stop was Roswell, NM. Roswell is famous for a supposed UFO crash in 1947. People come from all over the world to see the site of the crash and visit the UFO museum. Lindsay and I were far from impressed by the UFO museum... It consisted mostly of newspaper articles laminated and displayed on boards.


See??? Yikes! We did however find treasures in the nearby gift shops... My favorite was a bumper sticker with a picture of a UFO and it says: "Ship happens" hahaha Sooo good!

We drove through NM and spent the night just outside of Tucson, AZ.

The next morning we had a car incident. A piece of plastic from my undercarriage had split and was dragging on the ground. We were only 5 hours from home and we were determined to make it on schedule. I have an obsession with time management. A kind man at the gas station fixed us up with some duct tape and love. Thank you young man. I think you are awesome.

We stopped at a casino and played the nickel slot machines. I searched for "Antique Roadshow" which is Meagan's favorite game to no avail I might add. We settled on some fun looking machines. Lindsay put in $1 and came home with $7! I put in a $20 and left with $50. Big winners. Now I can pay to have my ferrari fixed...

Next stop... Cabazon, CA to see the dinosaurs featured in the Pee Wee's Big Adventure movie. I thought it would be a neat little place to walk the dog and take a pic or two. Little did I know... It was a mini dinosaur exhibit! They had mechanical dinos that would roar. You could climb up a bunch of stairs and actually look at the world through T-Rex's mouth. It was beyond fantastic! The biggest win of all was the gift shop. They had a robotic dinosaur that you could ride for $3. Obviously I couldn't pass up an opportunity like that!


I purchased Meagan's Christmas present in this gift shop. A little backpack full of clay so she could make her own dino and become part of the adventure.

We then reached our destination. Claremont, CA where I dropped off Sharky with Meagan. She baby sat him for several days. (Now that's a good woman!) I spent an hour or so at a bar shaped like a castle having some drinks with Lindsay and Meagan before heading to my parent's house. Fun times were had.
