Well it has been a nasty weekend. Rain, wind like a lot of you have had. This morning it is still windy but the sun is out. I have tickets to the Balto/Pitt game today that starts at 1pm. Thinking I haven't been out in more then a week and this is my favorite time of year I will go to bed early last night and that way I will be up early enough to go for a quick run. Im up, gassed up, and at the ramp at 8am. I don't think I have ever seen a Sunday sunrise unless I haven't been up all night. I pull into the parking lot and the bottom half is yellow taped off where the ramp is. I pull up to what looks like a security guard and ask what is up? They are filming Triple X part 3 here this weekend on the bridge next to the ramp and using the ramp for filming, props and stuff. I look up at the bridge and see car going over and ask again what up with that. They had to open the bridge from 6am to 12 am for the game. Then why is the ramp not open? They didn't want to move the stuff they had there in the way (3 boats on trailers and a crane that looked like it just drove up and a empty flat bed). I would have gone to the next ramp about 25mins away but it got washed out in the last hurricane last fall. The next ramp was to far away and to many tolls for the time I had left. Turn around and go home. This sucks. Now all my neighbors think I broke down or something because I was back so fast and didn't wash it or anything, just parked it full of gas and ready to go. Dam movie. I hope the game is good and this is not how the rast of my day will go. I am going to miss the NASCAR race (yea sometimes Im a red neck) on at the same time and my guy (#6) is in the chase. Ohh well it could be worse we could loose today to Pitt and that would really suck.
