Well, I evidently got a nail in my tire, so pulled it out and patched it. See, a few days ago, I just got back from a 5000 mile trip (by myself!) from Wisconsin to San Jose, CA and back. It was GREAT. My driving highlights were UT 128, US 50 through Nevada (broke my personal speed record here), I-80 between Reno and Colfax, CA, CA 1 north of San Francisco up to Fort Bragg, CA, and CA 20 from Fort Bragg to Clear Lake.
Was a really great trip, tons of fun drives and met a lot of fun and interesting people along the way.
