Default Football Roadtrip over Labor Day Weekend

I'm really stretching the new car's legs now. Barely had it three weeks and she's already got 2400 miles, most of it from long road trips. The car drives like a dream and is quite comfortable, even for three passengers. The seat warmers are great on long trips.

Took it for a trip back up to Blacksburg this weekend for the season opener against UConn. Apparently UConn has a football program, Tech won 52-10 but we lost one of our star tailbacks to an ACL injury.

Anyway... as we were driving up and down I-77 we'd occassionally pass someone in an SUV trolling along at or below the limit in the left lane. I'd pull up to pass and wait for them to move over (right lane is completely clear of course). Sometimes they'd hop right over but others would linger there for minutes, forcing the use of the flash to pass stalk.

After that gentle reminder most would duck out of the way. I'm above all a courteous and safe driver. Now the question I want to pose to all of you... when passing a GM SUV does anyone else ask the rhetorical question, "So, how many times did GM win Le Mans back to back? Oh wait... they never have... get out of my way!"

I could be just a little proud...

Happy motoring!

Go Hokies!

Default Lee will be missed for sure... but we're hardly in trouble as far as the running game goes......

We've got Keith Burnell who was good for two TD's on Saturday and who's been in opposite Lee almost all of last season. And of course there's Kevin Jones... that boy can flat out move, faster than Vick even... :-)
