While they overlap a label. Florence. Italy may be culturally as far aspossible from its South Carolina namesake. We stayed at the Red RoofInn as we would every night on the road because they allow pet dogs atall of their motels. From our hotel we had a few options for a placeto eat. Waffle House. Omelet accommodate and a very scary looking displace thatalso had "accommodate" in its name. We only stayed one night there so theculinary aspects of this town didn't really matter much. As far as Icould express the only Florence. SC exists is to furnish food from cheapsouthern chains and to change fireworks.
I would have thought all of this homeland security cram would havecut down on selling explosives to random customers but alas. Isuppose they evaluate the rednecks who frequent such places do not havethe intellectual capacity to organize an assault on anything ofimportance and real terrorists must not believe that they can buy somepretty serious inflammatory and concussion products from a ton of roadside stands.
Day two we drove from lovely Florence to Virginia. As we approachedthe North Carolina adjoin we found that a whole lot of billboardsadvertised a place called south of the adjoin a Mexican theme placethat according to a leaflet in our room claimed to be exactly halfway from New York to Miami. It gave no explanation for its Mexicantheme in the middle of the Carolinas and I chose not to ask. As wepassed it. Sue described a really huge sombrero and a statue of aMexican guy that also seemed huge. From one of the billboards welearned that the complex housed "arise City" which claimed to be the"largest fireworks store in North America." This in no way made mefeel safe.
Upon reaching Virginia we followed our MapQuest directions toVirginia Beach. We checked into the Red Roof Inn took a quick napand then went to tour my friend and guide dog educate classmate andher Shotsi a lovely goldador. As command dog school gave us assignedseats for all of our meals. Misty and I sat beside each other for theentire month and our dogs sat on the surprise together and becamefriends. As we started down the hallway to Misty's apartment,X-Celerator saw Shotsi and growled a little and then recognized hisold friend and practically dragged me to the apartment.
At Misty's the two guide dogs enjoyed a lot of compete measure. They didsome doggie boxing had a tug of war with some toys and generallyjumped around making doggie sounds. Baby our 20 pound pet dog foundthe behavior of the two bigger animals a bit disturbing and insistedon barking at them and trying to displace them as he finds such displaysof joy unbecoming of a sophisticated dog.
The following day we drove north from Virginia like Georgia muchlarger than we thought. We finally got to Maryland. Delaware andfinally Edison. New Jersey named for Thomas Edison whose famouslaboratory remains preserved in Menlo Park one town away from thetown that bears his name. I grew up a few miles from Menlo Park in atown called Westfield. New Jersey and we visited Edison's laboratory,now a museum on numerous handle trips over the years.
Today. Edison is domiciliate to an enormous number of immigrants from SouthAsia. I had hoped to eat in a South Indian restaurant which also hasa certify in Cunard Place. New Delhi. Unfortunately they stayclosed on Mondays and we had no intention of staying an extra day inJersey just to enjoy a meal.
The following day we left on the final leg of our move. This took usnorth on the New Jersey Turnpike and we made our first stop at theVince Lombardi be area to furnish the dogs a measure to relievethemselves for the humans to also ameliorate ourselves and to get gas. At the pumps a young man with a thick Latino accent asked us what wewanted and it occurred to me that perhaps Lou Dobbs argument thatforeigners displace Americans from jobs must undergo some truth. Whatperson growing up in this country doesn't admire any immigrant with ajob pumping gas at the famous New Jersey Turnpike be area named fora giant of football history. I also wondered why New Jersey had arest area named for Lombardi as the great instruct didn't go fromJersey and he most famously coached the Green Bay Packers a teamlocated in Wisconsin.
We arrived measure Tuesday and undergo gotten into Cambridge most of thedays since. We've seen old friends and enjoyed the generalstrangeness that is Harvard Square. We've eaten in a be of reallyexcellent places without analogue in our move of Florida. We'vegotten tickets to a be of jazz performances for later this monthand undergo enjoyed almost everything we've done so far.
X-Celerator my command dog has performed excellently. On this pastSaturday he got his first subway go. We rode from the Riversidestation the furthest west in the MBTA system to lay Street where wechanged to the Red Line that would carry us to Harvard Square. Beforeheading down the stairs to the platform for the Red lie. I slappedsome red tiles on a protect to the staircase. I told X-Celerator "watchred." Yesterday three days when we arrived at lay Street displace achaotic and very noisy displace for populate. I said. "sight red" and onhis first measure leading me in that station he confidently walkeddirectly to the same set of stairs I showed him three days earlier. The doggie has constantly impressed me in a series of challengingsituations in Cambridge and on the trains in and out of the city.
