Pulling into there parking lot i was greeted by one of the workers of the sovenier store who traded with me a brick from fenway for a brick from hadlock feild. he was nice enough to give me a tour of the feild .and luckily i had no accidents in the parking lot lol.Went on my way an saw an old church and stopped to take pictures.it was my lucky day as a home school group was having lunch. they all came out to take a look.I handed out armbands and pieces of brick. and then i headed to Poland Springs to find the source.
Pulled into poland springs and found the source but was the only one there. took some pictures and then headed west to meetup with my friend Pat in Burlington Vermont..The snow started to fall as I took a wrong turn and didn't realize it till i saw signs that were directing me to the Canadian border turning around I got stuck in a snow bank the first of many and and as it was late i waited till morning to flag down a passing auto who gave me a ride into town I had to be pulled out by a tow truck and the driver was real nice and only charged me 30 dollars and sent me on my way.. arrived at Pats house a few hours later .Spent the night in Pats as it was frezzin outside ,and in the morning headed over to Nesters a red sox bar in downtown Burlington. had a little luck raising money for my trip but in going back to pats the rgm stalled on a hill and had to be towed again. $200.00 In leaving Burlington i wondered if i should just give up and forget this tour ,but the looks on kids faces when they saw the rgm convinced me to push on .
i arrived in concord New hampshire and promtley got stuck in a snow bank. the tow truck driver came pulled me out and directed me to the state house parked near the state house and went to sleep in the morning i went in to tour the state house and they were getting ready to have some kind of ceromony so i stayed and watched my luck i got to meet Govenor Lynch and gave him a brick from Fenway Park.
Headed south back thru Massachusetts and stopped at U Mass and meet some sox fans .got a call from a sawxhead buddy an he had set up a radio interview for the next morning .I drove to the radio station and plugged the rgm in and went to sleep .in the Morning i was woken up by a guy wearing yankee gear but he was ok and took me in to meet bax and obrien the radio talk show guys.had a good time on the radio and headed south to meetup with Chris Wertz the RSN govenor of New York but never made it there .As i was driving down 95 the wheels flew off the back of the rgm and passed me .
