| caterpillar on hiking trail |
I came across this little guy on the way out for our hike. I nicknamed him "cheetopillar." In my younger days, I'd often grab a bag of cheetos and a Dr. Pepper for long road trips.
I remember one road trip from Mexico to Central California. Husband and I had flown from central Mexico to Tijuana, crossed on foot and then rented a truck to move some things from So Cal to Central Cal. As his driver's license had expired, I had to do all the driving which included driving at night through fog.
The superbowl was on that day and my husband was listening to the game on the radio. It was a really close game and we'd put off getting gas. With 15 minutes left to go, we pulled into a gas station. I offered to fill the truck up, but being the gentleman my husband is, he pays and fills the truck up with gas.
Game is now airing commercials, so he's going to get us some snacks. He went in to get my crunchy cheetos and Dr. Pepper and his snacks. Now I see him running to the truck empty-handed. "There's no Dr. Pepper for the fountain drinks," he says. I decide on cherry coke and he runs back in. He comes back with the cherry coke and soft, puffy cheetos. It'd been a long day and I knew I was being difficult, but I really wanted the crunchy ones. The game was still going but a time out had been called. So he runs back in to get my crunchy cheetos, and got back just as the game started up again. What a sweetheart!
