I kind of figured that meant they wouldn't have much there either, but I was mistaken. I asked the guy if there was another pawn shop in town and he pointed me in the right direction, saying that they owned the other too. I went in and there wasn't much to look at. I drove around looking for a pawn shop or music store and finally came across a pawn shop on the corner. The first town I came to was Las Cruces, NM. When I woke up it was around 8:00 AM and quickly got it together and hit the road again. I pulled into a truck stop and climbed into the back of my van with a pillow and sleeping bag and got some sleep. I played a breast cancer benefit show on Sunday afternoon and then hit the road on Sunday evening, driving until 3:00 AM. I live in the San Diego area, so anywhere is a long drive. Finally the day came and off I headed in my mini-van.headed towards the midwest to meet up with old friends and have some fun along the way. Somehow I talked my employer into letting me take two weeks off all together and I made arrangements for the kids with the ex and all that stuff. I decided awhile back that I would love to just hop in the car and go on vacation and stop where I pleased, sleep wherever I ended up, and of course, look for stray guitars that need a new home. This first one is actually still in my possession (but it's for sale.let me know if you are interested). Hey, it's been awhile but I've got some new stuff to write about.
