I dunno what it is about this Moveable Type interface but the second I have it open and ready to starting writing about my day is the second that I'm completely exhausted and ready to pass out. Anywho, I'm down in Starke, Florida, which is where the Rally School is. I booked it last minute same as the charming bed and breakfast that Im staying at. It's in the middle of nowhere and you literally take a winding dirt road to get to it, which is great and fits in with the whole Rally motif for this week. Although the town isn't much, this b&b is surprisingly nice. Its located right on a lake, I have a bedroom on the second floor with my own bathroom and a very sizable balcony which looks straight out on to the lake due West. Can you say great sunsets?
There are also two piers which I plan to use tomorrow to go swimming, even though to be honest I've always been afraid of lakes because they seem to have more fishes inhabiting them than oceans. I dunno if that's odd or not? Being more afraid of lakes than oceans? I guess its because in Oceans the only bad stories you hear about is sharks and I try to stay away from those waters, but with Lakes there are more, although at the moment the only one that comes to mind is Lake Placcid, but still that seems scarier than shark. I dont think there is any rational explanation for it, you just have to accept it as it is.
I've driven over 1,000 miles now, I think its 1,003 to be exact and I'll get the readings from the car later to update my totals. It's been a pretty decent ride so far. I'm sustaining my energy with a healthy diet of sugar free redbulls, subway sandwiches, and the occasional waffle from waffle house. It seems that traveling across America with a bad stomach isnt the brightest idea as there aren't many healthy much less organic alternatives for you to partake of while you are on the road.
I'm a little tips at the moment after digesting my chicken alfredo that I chased with a Heineken, so without much fanfare or further a due here are a few images that I managed to upload, basically of my drive through Florida and then the B&B where I am staying.
