I woke up in Lexington yesterday, ready to leave Kentucky and make it to Saint Louis. I drove through Louisville trying to visit the Cumberland Brewing Company and fought traffic only to find I was far to early to get a taste. Louisville seemed like a cool city like Austin jammed into a hideous sprawl on a river with terrible drivers. Making it to Saint Louis was satisfying; I was so happy when I saw that arch. In the last week I've traveled about 1500 miles from home out of what was first projected to be 4500 miles of travel. I feel good about settling down and getting to know the city for a few weeks. I still need to call up D and D but I'm sort of being lazy today. It's the weekend anyway.
Btw Lexington was cool. Good bars, beers, and an old theater played Ghostbusters and it was fun. I hadn't ever seen it all the way through and I was surprised at how conservative it was. The EPA was the bad guy. The spooky scary stuff was just basic occult demon stuff backed up with pseudo-science.
No one will ever read this. Maybe I'll clean it up now that I'll not be moving around constantly.
