Lori and I have taken our time getting across the country, sleeping late in cheap motels and stopping at popular tourist traps like the Montana State Prison and the Mystery Spot. I'll have some details soon, since we've endured many adventures and weathered a flurry of curious episodes since leaving the safety of Seattle. Thanks to several gallons of rum concoctions and expired medications we have kept big sickly smiles on our faces as we reconnect with family members, friends and near-friends and even a few benign enemies.

The wedding is Saturday.
