Dinner with Angie Location: China Hill We went out to a place called China Hill to enjoy a bit of dinner after our long day of driving. Featured is Angie, who let us crash at her swank living quarters for a couple days. (and who provided us with countless hours of Mr. Show, The Simpsons, Anime, and fun) - 106 0698 IMG
Death and regrowth Location: Yellowstone There was a really big forest fire in yellowstone in '89 and another in the mid-ninties (I think). Huge tracts in the park were covered with burnt down trees, but this really wasn't depressing because the ground was covered with thousands of baby pines growing up to replace them. The whole cyclical, natural aura got us both into a very Zen-like state and helped us apprecaite what was to come. - 107 0729 IMG

Catholic Guilt Location: St. Louis Also, she was trying to make up for the fact that they had planned to give St. Louis a day and a half, and ultimately didn't even stop for gas. Hence, lots of highway pics. After this, it was just a long day of driving: more of lovely Missouri, then Oklahoma (dubbed *parental advisory* "a fucking hell-hole of a miserable shit state"), and, finally, rest, in Dallas, at 1 a.m.
