Summer 2007 Road Trip: One girl. One car. Over 8,000 miles.

17
Aug

Cleveland, Ohio…

I left New Hampshire again today.  This road trip is already promising to be a bit more challenging.

Quick rundown of my day:

  • I got a speeding ticket in Upstate New York !!!!!!!  I was honest when I told the policeman that I didn’t know what the speed limit was.  He said in reply: “Well, it’s not 82, which is what you were going!”  I definitely deserved the ticket.
  • I saw no less than 15 people pulled over today, receiving tickets. Apparently the highway patrol is cracking down in NY state for speeding.
  • I am now the not-so-proud owner of 4 speeding tickets from 4 different states in a 5-year period.  2 1/2 of those years, I didn’t even drive!  I know, that’s really awful.
  • I feel like crap
  • This hotel doesn’t have room service
  • The valet parking service here taught me how to parallel park (long story)
  • I got flirted with/honked at by several truck drivers today (more than 5)
  • I ran into a major downpour today that reduced driving visibility to… zilch.
