The Pizza Chronicles





Now, I reckon you've heard tales of grand adventures and quests of old, but none so peculiar as the Sandie’s pursuit of a pizza pie. Yes, you heard me right, not for gold nor glory did they ride, but for the love of a good pizza. And not just any hop, skip, and a jump away, but a whole 175 miles. That's no small feat for a slice of heaven, I tell you.

These Sandies, a band of free-wheeling spirits, convened under the auspices of commerce and fellowship to discuss the weighty matter of dues. With the world's prices inflating like a hot air balloon, they resolved to up their ante by five dollars. Yet, in a stroke of magnanimity, they offered a reprieve for the early birds—pay before June, and you'd save yourself the increase. A more straightforward transaction there never was, just a click on their web contraption, and your dues were settled.

But let us return to the heart of our story—the ride. Six Sandies embarked on this culinary crusade, while Munchkin, with duties calling, bid them adieu. Tommy, Mark, and Tony G, those mechanical maestros, stayed behind to tend to their iron horses.

The rest, well, they were off to commune with the open road. Tim W and his compatriot Hal joined the procession, their hearts set on the quest for the perfect pizza. They journeyed a hundred miles, each turn a brushstroke on nature's canvas.

Then, in a twist that would vex the very soul of any pizza purist, JoeJoe, that maverick of mischief, dared to order a Hawaiian pizza. Pineapple upon cheese and sauce, a concoction as outlandish as a catfish with a top hat. It's akin to suggesting that Mr. Biden might choose Mr. Trump as his right-hand man—preposterous!( Spoiler alert, Never happen)

 Yet, there they were, the Sandies, a fellowship bound not by common sense but by an unyielding appetite for adventure—and, apparently, tropical fruit on their pizza. They feasted, they debated, and they reveled in the absurdity of it all.

So here's to the Sandies, those dauntless nomads of the highway. May their tanks always be full, their spirits never dampened, and their pizzas forever unconventional?
