As with the Miami Expedition of 2003, my brother and I decided to get a group... ok just the two of us and Shane, and make another baseball related trip to somewhere in the good old USA. We began this journey at about 8 AM July 31. The following pictures are a chronicle of the madness which we encountered, or created for ourselves.



The Voyage Begins Mike's got some Issues See what I mean? A sweet ride we saw along the way I didn't know they let sharp heavy trucks out on the roads
Stopped for some gas and grub in Gainesville after meeting Mike's Nemesis, a little old lady in a big ass Lincoln. A hobo along the way became the essence of Gainesville. My apologies to the hobo for associating him with that crap hole town, he was probably just passing through.

Mike's Nemesis... The essence of Gainesville Stopping for a bite to eat, a bite of the sandwiches I stole from Beef's the night before.  HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! A hard thought moment about stopping at Western World The Gigantic ass speed boat we saw while eating the sandwiches
Back on the road now, we decided this trip needed an appropriate motto...

The motto of the trip Shenanigans at 90 MPH Random ass picture of the pilot Even the Co-Pilot's getting on on the action Sleepy Shane
Stopping at a rest stop somewhere in Georgia, you could smell it everywhere... we were getting close to the heart of darkness.

Shane just waking up
Finally checked into the hotel, the Crowne Plaza Buckhead. Had to empty out a suitcase so we could fill it with the beer and vodka as to not attract attention to ourselves. I also emptied the ice machine on our floor out in the process of filling up our bathtub.

The Bathtub had to double as a cooler... Got a game in an hour, so we're drinking of course... Same Picture, different angle
After the game B. "I NEED MY ATTORNEY!!!" Peterson, scared just about everyone on the MARTA shuttle from the stadium. I thought we were gonna get arrested for being too nuts for Georgians to handle.

After the game the real journey began.  A search deep into the source to find ourselves. Take a guess as to what's going on Mike jumped head first into a wall.  Shane thought either he was gonna end up in the hospital or we were gonna get kicked out of the hotel before the night was over Diving into the ice water for another booze rocket Stuck between the bed and a wall
Check out that glazed over look... It's something about traveling, but it usually gives Mike the worst gas ever Don't ask me what's going on here
The next morning we were feeling a bit rough, but still managed to go for a walk in the scorching heat to ESPNZONE to get some grub. Saw quite a few characters along the way such as the mousey looking guy in the fuzzy hat and the dude with the pony tail in the pink shirt outside of Barnes and Noble.

Left over pizza and a booze rocket, the breakfast of the completely desperate. Shane, still disoriented from the noxious fumes that had been coming out of mine and Mike's asses all night The Hotel we inhabited for the weekend Some of the local architecture This building reminds me of Ghost Busters for some reason
WATCH OUT!!  IT'S THE FUZZ!!! Looks like a fine establishment.... Shane gives it a thumb WAY up!!! Finally at our destination I don't really know what's going on here
Dr. Peterson's new best friend Until he met this guy and fell in love Nostalgic for his old best friend Looking a bit overcast?  Don't let it fool you, it was about a bigillion degrees out. Shane agrees
Camping out to avoid the long lines these clubs can have Striking a pose next to the dream car
Somewhere along the route home, Shane found the piece we needed to complete the room, the stripper pole!!!

Proudly carrying his find Who's up for some random destruction of public property??? Almost there, the heat is starting to get to Shane Afraid he was gonna try and poke me in the ass with it Too Big for the turnsyle, but we made it work none the less
I swear to god it's this big Shane immersed in deep thought Tell tale signs that we had been there Really old, unrefrigerated pizza and a beer from the bathtub

Continued coverage of the craziest trip the summer had seen since Weeki Wachee...
