Road trip

Tomorrow Deirdre and I will be hitting the road for Pittsburgh and to check out apartments for her when she goes to grad school. It's been a long time since I've taken any really long drives. The summers in Alberta were always filled with the 3 hour trip to the Calgary area for bike races. So it's going to be kind of odd to be taking a long drive without a bike on the roof. That and three hours of virtually straight highway isn't the same as 13 hours through the Midwest. Though we should be fortunate to have better scenery than you get on the way to and from Calgary. I mean serious, how can a road go 300 km and only have 3 hills and only slightly more curves! I guess that's the Prairies for you. Growing up in Quebec it seemed as though straight roads were a rarity. Or maybe it was the fact that there were trees and hills that made it feel different. Not that it matters.

Anyway because I'll be away this doesn't mean that there won't be anything posted on the blog. I may actually try to do an Audioblogger post. If you don't know what that is check back here in a day or so and you may find out.
