I arrived after a short 11 hour drive today. I had a little road rage with a tractor trailer at 5:30 this morning on the George Washington Bridge; nothing like a little road rage to get the morning started. The rest of the drive was fairly uneventful except for the COPS show I witnessed on the side of 95 in North Carolina this afternoon. I saw two cop cars speeding up behind me with their lights flashing and for a split second I was cursing the ticket I was about to receive. They passed by me however, and continued down about 100 yards and flew off the road into the grass. An officer that had pulled a car over looked like he was chasing someone into the woods and the other 2 vehicles that had passed me had already stopped and drawn their guns on the woman who was sitting in the passenger seat. She didn't look very happy as she sat there with her arms out the window. Unfortunately that was all I saw as I sped by now knowing that all the police in the area were too busy to pull me over for allegedly speeding; speeding is against the law and I would never do it. I checked into my hotel and got my tackle ready for tomorrow. After finishing my tackle I drove over to Wal-mart to get my fishing license and a few snacks for the boat. Everything is set for tomorrow; I'm ready to get to work!
