well... it all started on a beautifully hot day... thursday, in the wee hours of the mornm at that...>>GREAT TIMING>>>from pittsburgh!!9HOURS>>>>however, the wait we all had approached... no problem... the drive was over, or so we thought...about six hours go by... we're laughing and singing,  annoying one another with sights of the entrance in a mile radial view.  finally the train has begun to churn... along the bridge... heat at its height... 

my late VAN BLUE decided to kiss a beautiful white jeep in front of us... so much love and he couldn't wait... it wasn't much but a 5mph hit, which toyota owners know against a jeep stands no chance!!!! the couple in the front wave to us (no problem...) that was great. such a beautiful crowd... especially in all this heated traffic... no damage to their jeep, we were lucky... BLUE just got a peck... 

now is the time for myself to step out of the vehicle and LOOK>>>>>>well, that i did, and i probably should have stayed inside the tinted colored windows>>>>a bit of damage...lights... dented in... radiator... dented in... the hood... dented in... BLUE, smiling like an angel... not too funny. about 10 minutes go by and the anger level in BLUE starts to rise to the red... LOVELY>>>>overheated in 88 degree temperatures...we all know what that means....HEAT

yes, our carfull was loving BLUE and myself at their highest love... yep, BLUE for stealing a kiss and me for letting it happen@@@@.

so the heat gets to be much, and the engine needs to go off for awhile... a lovely character notifies me that we lost part of the grate of the car... i cannot find it, as does he, and with that i recieve a key!!! cool>>>we needed an extra key...(just in case BLUE was a bit unhappy). so WE ARE IN!!!!!!the time has come to PARTY DOWN>>>>BREAK OUT THE GUINNESS!!!!! i kiss BLUE. (not as he had the jeep) and thank him millions for getting us all their safely and in one piece!!! no more thoughts of BLUE until the day of departure, which would be monday!!!! WHOOOOOOHAAAAAA

the festival was inexplicable....i couldn't even begin to express the beautiful energy all around... HOME>>>>FINALLY>>>>FAMILY<<<<<CHEERS TIL THE DAY HAS BEGUN>>>> (one long phantastic time it had been). a whole new story i'll spare ya'll this round....

monday arrives, as does the thought of home... wondering if BLUE realizes that he now needs to repeat all happenings backwards, less the kiss... blah, blah, blah... and then some, and we are off to seek the lizard....++++anywho... the sound of the gun... and we're OFF!!!!chug chug chug /// blaaaaa... overheat... hmmmm... let's try again... sittin' among the knights... our lovely neighborhood drivers offer my BLUE some drink... ENGINE COOLANT!!! (guess i didn't think of everything....) thanks for keeping the force flowing, trey... in the black jeep...it shall come back to you!!! i hope you cats made it home okay.

well... a few other knights approach us and notify us of a "portal opening." after sitting for about two hours we jump on this line... well we get let in from the angel attendant who is patiently waving all of the UNHAPPY traffic lives... we are one of two cars on main road west that was empty... to the south stood stagnant 3 hour traffic... so i thank the jedi here... just believe angel... just believe BLUE>>>>and we did, until we moved five feet after being let in... and CLUGGGG, red line approaching... so BLUE gets shut off, and traffic starts to move, but BLUE does not...

BLUE>>BLUE:::EARTH TO BLUE>>>WE ARE MOVING!!! MOVE>>>no comment... no charge... lovely... he quit... only 10 hours home and a few in traffic... TO OUR RESCUE>>>DA*DA*DADA!!!! a white jeep cherokee!!  the angels are everywhere as i had been told by millin the dawn before (the lovely cali boy), whom i shall see again... as we strive to MOVE, a kind soul from kentucky saves our BLUE... BLUE must have a thing for white jeep cherokees because he started right up>>>>>>thanks to the man from kentucky, hope you made it out alright!!!!

i'm almost wondering what other word to use, for it seems so meaningless... thanks...  he talks to the guy and radios up to the other for us to ride the edge, for there had been no juice in the battery... (via BLUES KISS) soooo... to make the story longer to the kindred spirits among all, BLUE trucks us on through, passing many cars, trucks, and vans... i'm feeling not too cool to be bypassing all, but the cat at the front was awaiting our BLUE>>and we were to truck onward until he let us on by... otherwise we ""should had been waiting""as others were...

sorry guys... it was the force that led us...we kept it flowing>>>i hope you all made it out quick and safely...we went to the first stop to turn all engines off and to give him some hydrogen hydrogen oxygen, and BLUE started right up!!!! thanks to all of the beautiful people to help make this happen!!!!5 hours later we stop and break... and so does BLUE<<<he's done...no pulse...BLUE>>>BLUE<<<hmmm, no car in sight, but a few people... BONNAROO PEOPLE>>>what a magical place...is this all as real as i see it???

yes it had been...we come across a few very helpful people from ohio...i thank ya'll from columbus...no juice...BLUE has given up, as had the whole carload<<<<< I KEEP BELIEVING<<<<<AAA... a few hours... maybe i need to tap the alternator...screwdriver...(for your information, always have a NONMETAL screwdriver in the car...) I DID NOT!... a couple over the way had one...as well as a battery charger...BLUE NOR MYSELF DID NOT GIVE UP!!! AND BAM!! LIKE THAT >>HE STARTED>>>>>>well no more engine shut off for about 11 more hours, and yes, safely we all made it home...!!!!

YEEEAAHHHHHHHHH however, BLUE, to my dismay...did not start for a week... he sat and thought of the first kiss he had, and to his dismay, hopefully his last kiss... he is currently under operation and BLUE and MYSELF BELIEVE he will pull through....thanks to all you cats out there who helped us along the way...you gave us all a sense of BELIEVING, and  WE NEEDED that...thank you and i hope to see you all sooner that next year....

 - your true believer of the force until the end until the beginning until the end and so on...
