Some trout(mobile) with my pizza?????

Post by Mr Blotto » Thu Aug 30, 2012 2:41 pm

Earlier this week, we did our weekly "grab a pizza in the bus and eat it at the lake" dinner. And what do I see in the parking lot after we pick up our pizza?
Image
Could it be ChiTown's troutmobile? Sure looks like it. We waited a few minutes for the owner to show his/her face, but alas, we had to motor....we were hungry!

I hope your east and west coasters see the proper way to slice a pizza (in SQUARES!!!) :bootyshake: :bootyshake: :bootyshake:

And it isn't a proper trip in the bus without the requisite 5 minutes behind the wheel pretending to drive....

And whoever owns that bus, it is pretty cool - that rack makes it!

Plans fell through. Got excited thinking we might be assisting a friend moving to Vermont by driving the U-Haul, but the Pod movers got her. One of these days.

You are welcome too, Hammy. I just watched the godfather part 2 and it is certainly time to make peace in the family...

I appreciate the hospitality chitwn, and will take you up on it hopefully sooner rather than later.

But why? What lurks in the interior of the Troutmobile? The Bus made famous by crossing the frozen tundra and making it!
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue, I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace. Where never lark, or even eagle flew. And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod, The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.
