25 hours of pure bliss....

So, I'm here, finally, in Bay St. Louis. It took a grand total of 28hours from the time I left my house, to the time I pulled into Lagniappe. Good ol' Greyhound actually stayed pretty much on schedule, though there were moments that were less than enjoyable, (e.g. trying to fall asleep with a wannabe gangsta rapper taking up 75% of the seat we were sharing, while listening to this other guy regale his crew with tales of nefarious deeds done by his gang (for anyone who cares who, they fly a blue flag)) All in all a good trip, met some interesting folk, got a few hours of fitful sleep, etc. When I got into Lagniappe, I grabbed some chow, and actually put together my bike as the first order of business. I am now the proud owner of functioning, fixed-gear street machine, which needs only a few slight tweaks to be a really great ride. i'll post a picture later both here and on fixedgeargallery.com. Well I have to be ready to go at 7:30 tomorrow, so I'm going to sign off.
