A large storm came through and the power went out, so I went to sleep. Our neighborhoods power is underground but the people with all the tress have above ground power, which caused all the problems.
Alabama / Florida rest area
As soon as I got to the Alabama line I saw a convertible Corvette motorcycle hybrid. When I pulled into the Alabama rest area I saw a helicopter about to land and some nice wood paneling. I also witnessed two of the most retarted people when it come to using a vending machine. Maybe the drink vending machine should have had a sign stating “make sure coin acceptor is attached to the vending machine you want to use”? Maybe not?
Well, I did not make it to Birmingham….
I did not make it to Birmingham today and needed to spend the night at a Days Inn in Tallahassee Florida. I started going through the information that I collected and realized that I got too much crap. I will be going through all my pictures of the ICA meeting and posting them soon (along with posting pictures and descriptions of products that I talked to vendors about). I also stopped at some car washes in Orlando and on the way to Tallahassee and plan to post those pictures soon.
I guess the hotel was in a bad part of town (last picture), maybe that is why it was the cheapest in town?
The long drive home…..
I picked up a flier from a Florida rest area and realized that I needed to “Slow Down!” to protect black bears. Did you know that 160 bears were killed in 2007?
I was very tired after the party and still did not get over the drive to Orlando. So I took a break at Petro and noticed a common site, an out of order Rowe changer.
While visiting the Rowe booth at the ICA meeting, I noticed that all but one of the Rowe changers had Mars bill acceptor. Which is weird because the Rowe acceptor seems to have problems all the time. Did Rowe even figure this out?
Spain Parks Girls Softball team is crappy?
My sister (Melissa Wilson) was the only Spain Park girl that got a hit. Which ruined Savann Hennings from Springville no hitter. This is the game I was at before going to the ICA meeting.
Added a live photo page

Should be updating it over the next couple days.
At least the mower worked
ICA Meeting
I just figured out yesterday that I am going to go to the ICA show this year. Just a little last minute but I should be there. Just look for the guy with the pet rat. If you are not going, I am hopefully going to do some live photos of the show and some live blogging (moblogging for the cool kids) on the floor and seminars. The ICA show is always fun but it is going to be in Orlando this year, which means really bad drivers. I hope I can also find a couple of washes around town to photo.
