I have TP. (Even though I wouldn't be caught DEAD or even remotely comatose on the side of the road doing THAT!)
I have an umbrella.

I do NOT have that Fix~A~Flat stuff, but that's a good idea! It's just gone on the list!

Thanks, Y'all, for being so thoughtful and caring!

fixaflat aerosol is only for dire emergencies. Usually the tire can't be repaired after it's been used. It's the residue on the inside of the tire. So I've been told.

Yes, more so in emergencies, which is why I gave the back road scenario...I was thinking about her being in an area she didn't feel safe in, waiting for AAA or something.

It used to be true that the tire couldn't be fixed if the product was used. That is no longer the case. You just need to tell the tire guy that you used the product.

You can find the above information on their website.

PS ~ Those are not MY feet.
MY feet will be pedi'd and polished, thank You.

You don't need fix a flat.

You just need your smile.

Works like a charm.

LMAO was just about to ask if that was your pistol i was seeing or if you were just happy to see me :)

Wishes i was goin on this trip. I haven't read all of it yet so sorry if this is repeats.....but,

necessities...

in the front seat...extra eyeliner and lipstick for when you stop to peepee; hair brush with extra barrettes cause hair always goes to hell on long trips, deodorant..just cause, MAJOR amounts of music, lip gloss and sunscreen cause your left arm will unfortunately get a tan which will make you lopsided and you walk crooked.

Just off the top of my head...more later.

mmmmmmmmmmwahhhhhhhhhh

Do not leave that can of fix a flat in your van in extreme heat
Oh and don't forget to bring an extra gallon of anti freeze along with the water


Perhaps a list posted would put some of us at rest before you travel

if cleaned properly it can be repaired...it's just a pain in the rear.

Diva 06-30-2011 10:10 PM

I decided against the F~A~F stuff. It can't get hot and I'm going to be in the hottest part of the country. It would be just MY luck that it would explode.

No thank You. :eyebat:


Diva 06-30-2011 10:52 PM

Ok, I came over here to say something and then I got distracted ~ oh look! a chicken! ~ and I forgot what I was gonna say.....

Who can I blame?



sierragirrl 06-30-2011 11:16 PM

don't forget to make sure all the routes your gonna take are all open. i saw on the news about the fire in N.M.
we just got back from a road trip from Nor Cal to OKC and back. i loved it. Utah is not so purdy in some areas.
:praying: have a safe trip

Yes, I'm keeping my eye on those fires!
I'm going the southern route on I-10 until Tucson.
My cousin lives close to the AZ fires, but they're almost contained.
I won't get on I-40 until I leave her home and pop up to Flagstaff.
Then there's a small fire in CO that is also close to where I'm staying, but I believe it's nearly contained, and should be totally contained by the time I roll through.

Thank You! I'm bringing weinies and graham crackers, Hershey bars and marshmallows, just in case! ;)

What kind of Soccer Mom Van will you be driving on your road trip? How many miles on it? Be sure you have her into the shop for maintenance and inspection before you make the trip.

I was not surprised to read about your 38. I like a trusty 38 myself. I realize 38's are somewhat out dated. Seems many want a Glock as their hand gun of choice.

I am looking forward to reading about your road trip adventures. What I remember vividly from your previous road trip blog was your pic of you, G and the giant Shuttle Cock.

Galahad 07-01-2011 01:21 AM

Diva, I did have a can of faf explode. But, the can I have now has been in the trunk for years. It's in an old insulated lunch bag and no problems. It's really hot here too and the car sits in a parking lot all day all summer, avg. temp. 108.
Be safe. Even if you have to buy a new valve stem later.

Hand guns are a subject I rarely talk about, its too controversial. And the few people who like to do the rumor thing, (:| ) did a smear of me about hand guns, and all I did was mention I owned one. Anyhow......

I have this great little 25 that I have hollow points loaded into. This is not my handgun of choice, but, when I am out on my bicycle and many miles from home and sometimes civilization. One can become very vulnerable.(one of my bicycles is worth the price of an average used car) This very small hand gun has laser sights on it. I learned this at the NRA convention that was held here a few months ago. (I traded the old 25 in and bought this new one) Of course do not carry a hand gun if you can not use it. But second, you set the laser sights on someone......you've freaked them the hell out....and 98% of the time they will go the other way saying to them self "oh oh, wrong person"

I appologize if this was a derail...back to the travel channel.

Diva 07-03-2011 11:38 PM

Alright, everyone! Departure is at hand!
I'll be leaving tomorrow evening between 5 & 6.....driving to San Antonio tomorrow evening, checking into the hotel and go to dinner at Boudro's on the River Walk where my daughter is a server! I'm so excited as this was my all~time favorite restaurant when I came down for TMEA conventions!

Then early Tuesday morning, I'll be on my way (going to San Antonio tomorrow actually cuts about an hour and a quarter off my Tuesday drive....so it's all good)!!

My bags are packed.
My car has been serviced (complete with 4 new tires that SING, btw!).
I will load up the car tomorrow afternoon, make like a baby and head out! :eyebat:

Diva's West Coast Road Trip
DAY ~1~

Alright........I didn't think I could POSSIBLY have anything to report on DAY ONE!!!!! :|

Au contraire, mon ami.

And I just have one word: MERDE.

So.

Let's see....where to begin, where to begin........

Ok....I had a few errands (three) left to do today before I left. I was planning on leaving around 3. PLANNING on it... :|
I went for a pedi, first. She cut me! CUT ME! My toe hurts. However, I have purple polish, so I forgave her in my heart. :eyebat:

Then I had to go to Lowe's and have a couple of extra keys made. So I went and did that. I got back in the car, pretty pleased with myself ~ even though it was past 3. (The salon was crazy wild and backed up!) I get in the car and think.....that's odd. Why does my car smell like wine? <breathed deeply>

Then I thought.....did I take that bottle of wine out of the car yesterday???? :praying: Well....I'll just go to the bank and then when I get home, I'll check.

I get to the bank and reach for my purse. :|
It's not in the front seat. Now why ~ I asked myself ~ would I have put it in the back with my purchase? So I got out at the Drive-thru and opened the back door and my purse was not there.

What?!?!?! There is no WAY I left it at Lowe's! Maybe I did...in the basket, as I left?

So I tried to get back on the interstate to go back. There was a wreck. (Oh yes there WAS!) It seemed like it took me FOREVER to get back to Lowe's. I see my basket. No purse. Oh PLEASE let it be inside.....

I went to the Customer Service Desk and there were 3 people in front of me. :| Finally I got to the lady and asked if someone had turned in a black patent leather handbag (this is my Mom's purse!!!). No....she didn't think so. And my heart sank, because if there was no purse, there was no trip for Diva. I tried not to cry and another woman said, "What color is your purse?" I said "Black!!!!!" And is there something special on the outside? (This was a test, I could tell!) I squealed with glee, "TINY PINK TIARAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She laughed and delivered my purse to me.

I MAY have skipped to the car. :eyebat:

So....then I go back to the ATM. THAT was flawless.

Then I get home and I open up the back of the van. The bottle of wine had knocked over in the [plastic] bag and rolled to the other side of the car. I guess in the process, it was SO incredibly hot in the car, the cork blew out and there was wine all over the back area of my van. All I could think was.....Jeez. I hope I don't get pulled over! Ok, ok....it MAY be mildly amusing now.....but that was a lovely bottle of Riesling. Wasted. Ne'er to be savored upon these lips. Grapes. Crushed for naught.

Then I finished packing the car. Lucy was becoming nervous. She doesn't like to see me pack the car. She wanted to go, too.

Off I went to San Antonio, 2 1/2 hours later than I originally planned. I checked into my hotel, freshened up a bit and took off for my daughter's restaurant!

First, Boudro's is on the River Walk. So it's full of charm......and very San Antonio! I got to meet her favorite co~workers, including her boss, who was lovely. We sat and chatted when things calmed down.

I got to watch my daughter work the table next to mine ~ an 8-top. I tried not to stare. She was so good!!! I was glad I got to hear her explanations, too. I was so proud I nearly cried. I had to stop myself because I know she would have been embarrassed. But she was f***ing amazing! :heartbeat:

I had this amazing sirloin....holy God...amazing wine.....she made guacamole tableside and I had some really wonderful wines. (They have their own wine cellar!) And to top it all off? Creme brulee`............MMMmmmmmmmmmmm!!!

When I left (I was there 2 1/2 hours), some of the waiters came to door and waved and said, "Bye Mom!"

They made my night!

So i'm back in my room.....going to hit the hay in a few minutes!

Tomorrow is Chapter Two: Las Cruces!!
