Anyone who’s ever entered two rodeos on the same day knows that it can be a delicate operation.  Such was the case when we were in the northeast trying to make it from Rodeo #1 to Rodeo #2 before they kicked the latch on me.  Racing against the clock, it was apparent that every other vehicle on the road was out for a leisure Sunday afternoon drive.  So, evaluating time against distance we decided it was necessary to be a little more aggressive.  That was when we turned a road that technically had only one lane going each way into a two-lane road by utilizing the horse-and-buggy lane to our advantage.  It’s hard to convey the excitement of playing a game of chicken against a horse and buggy!  I’m not sure if there is a law against this, but either way it always comes to mind when asked about life-on-the-road experiences!
