You know what I like about staying home on the holiday's like this?

There is no traffic - anywhere- I mean, like, there are hardly any cars. I can get to a store 5 miles away in like, 10 minutes and not in 25. I can get ACROSS TOWN to Eagan or St. Paul in 20 minutes instead of 60 or 90 minutes.

We even went to the HOME DEPOT paint desk in the middle of a Sunday afternoon in one of the busiest HOME DEPOT's in the Minneapolis area (St. Louis Park) with an order of 13 gallons of paint and it was done in 20 minutes. TWENTY MINUTES PEOPLE!!!

Usually my street has a car or two on the road every minute or two and I skated my warm up and cool down here for a total of ten minutes and not one car interrupted me.

So all you "goin' up nort' to the cabin people" I'm here to tell you that you are dumb and are gluttons for punishment. You are going where every other sucker is going 'to get away' from people. In reality all the people are going where you're going and there is nothing but traffic and hurry up and relax where you are. Back home - there is nothing but peace and quiet and easy days.

I love the Holidays.....
