Today was intended as an escape, of sorts. Turns out that it was, in so many ways, not the least of which being a narrow escape with our lives, or at least our health. Some trucker apparently decided that we were a threat of some sort to him; he swung around us as we entered the 205 (from the same on-ramp) and passed us at nearly 80 mph, then slammed on the brakes just in front of us. Don't know what we did to piss this guy off, but he tried to run us off the road (on a three lane highway) half a dozen times in the space of the next 5 or 6 miles. Truly a stellar level of jerkdom, and a wonderful impression for the company he represents. Honestly, we were just glad to be done with him, when he finally pulled back off the highway.
Our escape from the heat, on the other hand, went much better. We went to one of our favorite swimming holes, in Stevenson, Washington, and then grabbed delicious ice cream at Granny's Gedunk, in town. Seriously tasty strawberry, there.
