8. It suddenly dawns on you why all your neighbors are getting up earlier now...they’re trying to beat each other to the nights road kill.
Ahem. Me to my kids ...”Well, the locals ain’t facining starvation.”
“How do you know that, Dad?”
“We have passed twenty-seven free racoons, a couple of free deer, and and least three free cats...”
Road kill.
It has evolved into a road-trip game. “Free...”, the boys blurt out,” ummmm... what was that?”
“I dunno. I hope it was a gopher.”
