We’re heading back east! I get to see Luz in less than a week! Although, honestly, they didn’t treat me too shabby in the Loews Santa Monica. Everybody made a huge fuss over me — even though I made them shampoo the rug in our room at least once a day. Wear a purple bandage on your paw, and you can get away with anything. You know, there’s one thing that happened last week in Santa Monica that I found really, really confusing. Everyone was making this huge, big deal about the space shuttle flying over the Santa Monica Pier. People were lined up three-deep on the streets, the beach, the promenade — everywhere! But the space shuttle had to ride on the roof of the 747! Now I’ll laugh just
as hard as the next dog about Mitt driving with Seamus on his roof rack — but why is it not cool to ride with a dog on the roof, but it is cool to ride with a space shuttle on the roof? Politics. I just don’t get it. You might have noticed that B-Man didn’t post word one about the fly-over. That’s because he missed the whole thing! He was in the shower when the space shuttle flew over the pier! Oh, he was not happy. I thought it was a riot. Not that I’m holding a grudge over the revolving door incident or anything. Ooops — gotta go see the red rocks of Sedona. This place smells awesome!
I plan to write The Roof Rack Report for this blog (#roofrackreport on Twitter, for those who follow me already on @BeagleManHank) as often as I can while we’re on the road. But if there’s only time for The Roof Rack Report or food, I can tell you right now what it’s gonna be.
Hello Beagle Man! just like to ask Ricky a couple of roof rack questions that have been bugging me lately. #1 how many states have you passed through that have enacted new voter I.D. Laws? #2 do you think it would be far fetched to think that the new voter I.D. Laws just might be a Republican ploy to suppress the minority vote? Stay curious Ricky! Love, Delaware Joe/ DJ/Just another Joe from Delaware!
Will do some research when I’m not being dragged all over the country!
Ha…and Ricky – make sure you’re carrying your papers through Arizona so that you don’t get deported! Maybe you can share your thoughts on immigration in your next Roof Rack Report…
Hello Beagle Man! Hope your listening to some good jams on that long road. Just got done listening to some road jams by the great Richie Havens. three of my favs are Younger men grow Older, Nobody left to Crown and my all time fav Handsome Johnny. He also does a great job with Beatles and Dylan songs.
Hey, Delaware Joe — nice to hear from you again. I sure am listening to good tunes. Today, in honor of driving through the Lone Star state, I listened to some of my Texas favorites: Pat Green, Janis Joplin, Robyn Ludwick, and my personal discovery and current fave . . . Trish Murphy. Give her a listen! See you in Delaware, Joe!
