If You Gotta Drive Around For 29 Hours …

by Mike Sigers on August 23, 2007

Sunset in KentuckyOver the last two days, I’ve been out, driving around, from jobsite to jobsite, visiting customers, dropping off samples, attending pre-construction meetings, taking pictures of projects, etc., to the tune of 29 hours in two days.

If you have to be gone that much, drive that long, eat that much road food, etc, the best thang that could happen is for you to get about 45 minutes from home and see this sunset.

Me and my Casio took this shot out the window of my Camry, at about 75 MPH. Not bad for my minimal skills.

Miranda Lambert

Sunsets like that are why I live in the western part of Kentucky. That and Miranda Lambert on my Sirius Satellite Radio, singing Everybody Dies Famous In A Small Town, cranked up really, really loud, windows down on my Camry, about 75 MPH and the smell of home cooked food in my nostrils. Yes, I can smell my wife’s cookin’ from 45 minutes away. It’s that damn, good.

Sorry there’s no sales advice here today, but I’m too dang tired to try. Enjoy the sunset and be glad you didn’t work 29 hours in two days.

Oh, and go buy Miranda’s CD, it’s that damn good, too !

Gorgeous photography, but…er…could you please just concentrate on driving when you’re driving, my love? You’re not exactly God’s gift to Kentucky’s highways, you know.

Love ya, but your skills at driving are equal to my skills at budgeting money.

Nahhh, nothing’s that bad.

You’re right about Miranda’s cd - it’s a winner.

Holy cannoli, Mike! I can’t believe I haven’t seen your wife’s cooking site before. Man, there’s some great recipes over there.

And is that a glass of sweet tea for a favicon? Very nice.

Awesome picture, Mike.

That’s one to frame and be proud of.

Further proof that one picture is worth a thousand words.

It’s got a great story behind it.

Regards,

Glenn
