We take you from Denver to Naperville in only 1 hour 23 minutes when it took us 18 hours straight. Which takes some heavy lifting and many,many four letter words. Show notes will arrive at a later date.I am still trying to process this part of the vacation and reliving it again isn't something that I am looking foward too. More will follow about the contest for the 30GB iPod also. For now you will have to listen to the show. Enjoy!. Coming up on Monday . . . Vacation: Act #4 The Aftermath

We are not quite sure that our big summer vacaction driving to Denver in Slowsky was really a vacation. But we are sure that we will never drive anywhere on vacation again. What we can say about our trip is that with the help of many lucid memories and five days to regain our footing on solid ground that we would like to bring your our trip in three separate podcasts.
