writing this down so i will remember my favorite moment from this day!
we were in heavy traffic, approaching knoxville. we knew we were about ten miles behind the caravan.
then, much too early, dan said, "is that a bug"?
i hadn't noticed it because that bug happened to be towing a trailer. but as soon as i understood what i was seeing, i knew just who it was.
i was in the passenger seat, dan was driving, and we were about to pull up on their left. fortunately, these folks almost always run with the windows down and a/c off.
we pulled up alongside, i rolled down my window, and in the middle of a traffic jam on a huge interstate at a random point in tenessee, i yelled, "HEEEYYY!"
beej was driving-- she whipped her head around. i could see the comprehension take a moment on her face, and then she said, "HEY!!!" and we both started laughing.
