Squaw

This is a great post becasue it involves both kiosks and hitch hikers. I landed a kiosk at Squaw Valley USA which is great. While installing it I picked up two guys (I was on my way to the hardware store at Truckee becasue my screws were too short to lag the kiosk into their counter top). Well these two guys said they were going to 7-11 to see if the cop was still there. They both had warrants and the cop had followed them while they were in their motor home. Then He banged on the door saying "I know you're in there, I just want to ask you some questions" but they just stayed hidden and quiet. So they wanted to go to 7-11 to see if he was still there. If not they could hitch back to Squaw and get their motor home and drive to Reno. One said he had warrants for stealing toothache medicine (which was funny becasue my tooth was hurting like hell as I was listening to this story) The other didn't say why he had warrants but if he got caught it was 55 days in jail and a $5K fine.

One of them smelled terrible ( as do most hitch hikers). They both had to sit in the front seat becasue I had the back seat down. The front seat was completely filled with road trip rif raff but we managed.

The good news was the last time I was at Squaw, meeting with the owner about the kiosk I left my snowboard in the parking lot. Someone had turned it in to security and it was there waiting for me. Awesome.
