A hot car + pool cue + nothing better to do = Road Trip! A driving adventure on twisty beach and mountain roads. A pool-shooting journey of discovery. The car: new 2006 Corvette convertible. The driver: Mike McCafferty ("Fast Mikie") The roads: From San Diego to Canada, along legendary coastal Highway 1, and then taking the long way home with a pool-shooting tour of 11 western states. What could go wrong, right?
Day 54: Del Mar, CA
There was a powerful magnet pulling me home,
and I drove non-stop until I had used
the entire full tank to the point where
the low fuel warning came on.
Then a quick stop for gas only and then
back on the road until I hit home!
I was so wired after this marathon high speed drive
that I unpacked everything and went thru
two months of mail before I re-hung my hammock
and hit the first ball on my Gold Crown.
And so, in the fullness of time,
Fast Mikie's Epic Road Trip is over.
As I write this, there are only 26 days left
until the US Amateur Championships
so I better get back to some serious practice.
I learned a lot, about life and pool.
Now all I have to do is execute...
