...And the road becomes my bride I have stripped of all but pride So in her I do confide And she keeps me satisfied Gives me all I need ...And with dust in throat I crave Only knowledge will I save To the game you stay a slave Rover, wanderer Nomad, vagabond Call me what you will Metallica

Make sure you check out Presque Isle Park. When I lived in Erie you could take a tour of the ship when it was docked. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I527 using Tapatalk

When I worked as a roadside assistant I carried a breaker bar, set of 12 point impact sockets and a 3 foot piece of pipe for extra torque. Never had trouble with stubborn lug nuts. The post for a reflective vest is a good idead too. Nothing scarier than changing a tire at night on a busy...
