I just got back form another road trip cross country, this time with my brother. He got an opportunity to work in Atlanta and I went with him for the ride.... the skies started off blue...
but quickly turned an ominous cold
but, ofcoarse we had to stop at the Big Texan to attempt the 72 ounce steak challenge...
its slightly bigger than this chefs torso
thank god I convinced Ross not to do it. Nothing like getting back into the car with your younger brother after he shovels half a cow down his throat
we got stuck in Oklahoma due to some severe ice storms. Even rough and tumble local cowboys and truckers were shocked by the weather. It looks sunny but the roads were totally frozen. So we made the best of it and decided to shoot some hoops. The local news thought we were crazy.
so... "you're form L.A., have you ever seen this kind of ice and snow before". No replied Ross, "but I did see a 72 ounce steak a while back"


"Lets take the trucks off your board and go boarding, sweet!"
we finally got out of there and ended up in this beautiful empty bar in Memphis.
more driving through the South brought on many gas stations and convenience stores including this one that really prided itself on carrying the 'domestic brew'
and pizza for breakfast
