We drove straight through from Kansas City to New Jersey.
My family was late getting out of the house. I can’t understand why…My wife should have planned to put two new front tires on the truck before she packed
Since they were late picking me up from work, I walked to Blue Springs High School and waited for them there. Once they arrived, we met Coach Mike Hagerty and thanked him for all of his help and then hit the road.
Big A took the first leg. At about 8:30 P.M., just before we crossed the Missouri/Illinois border on I-64, we drove through an area that really stunk! But, there are lots of places that stink. This one had a particular aroma.
“Cakes, is that your feet?”
“No!!!”
She was horrified!
She thought that I was just being mean until my wife and son piped up that they assumed that she had taken off her shoes! So, we renamed the area, Cakes Feet, Missouri…and the pronunciation of the state is mis-er-y!
The next morning, we drove through another area with a very familiar aroma and renamed it…Big A’s Breath, Maryland.
Later that afternoon, we drove through the third incorrectly named place…Mom’s Belly Button, Delaware.
You might be thinking, what about me…
I don’t stink…
Really…
Ask my family!
