almost gone

my last two mini-mobile posts were intercepted by aliens or something.

we're in pennsylvania, having lucked out and found the last hotel room 40 miles around last night around 11:30 pm. turns out there is natural gas drilling going on around here, and the miners have been living in hotels for over a month now, so rooms are hard to come by.

so here we are in a red roof inn, which feels more appropriate to our family than the luxury of the hilton last night, but sadly, having tasted richness, i want it back, damnit.

is it that hard to vacuum the carpet all the way to the edges of the wall? and just by putting a little placard that says "no smoking room" in the room does not mean no one ever lit up in here.

i'm not even gonna shower. its that gross in the bathroom.

but, my friends, it was a place to sleep, and i am grateful nonetheless.

today we haul ass over the lovely PA countryside in hopes of finding one cool cavern to explore and then we're off to jersey city to see our dear friends.

today, i am so glad that we are almost home. almost there. so close.
