It has begun...

It is often stated that the heart of any road trip is the beer cooler. Mine is blue and have hearby designated it with the name of "Senor Blue Balls". I have also noted that sno-cones are $1 (old SNL skit with Will Ferral). Dave Ryan and I are in Minneapolis and heading torwards Chicago today. Haven't found anyone to let us sleep at their place yet, but nonetheless, we have camping equipment and may try to camp at Buckingham fountain in the trees.
