On June 16th, Tomoyoshi had his first meeting in the State of 
Louisiana.  That makes 27/48 states for meetings.




He left from Houston, TEXAS to Leduc, Alberta Canada
A quick run of 2,340 miles. 

June 19th
Popped in to Toby Keith's restaurant in Oklahoma City. 
Then off to study mtg with a full stomach with Garrett
THEN … there's a first to everything...
First time for me to see a guy run out of gas 
while we're in meeting haha — with Garrett.
(Leaking gas tank!!)






June 21st Roadside inspection.
Officer didn't seem too happy when 
he couldn't find anything wrong. Oh well.


On the way north, of course, Tomo had to have a bite to eat
 in Minot, North Dakota with his friend John
 at Buffalo Wings & Rings.



Pulled into Ryan and Ashley home in Leduc, Alberta.  
So nice to have friends with big yards that will allow for a Semi truck!!




Relaxing time too!!

Due to some weather in the Calgary area, Tomo had a bit of time off and was able to stop at Mellowdale and see a few people from the other side of the world.  Nice to see Shizuko from Japan, and Paul as well before he heads back to New Zealand and then of course to see Sury was a great reminder that he needs to head back to India some time in the near future. 

After that he was able to help a young friend, Mike with a lift to the next stop, Hythe to see Peter.  Peter was his shopping buddy while in India shopping for material for MOM!!  What a pal!!



On the way to Hythe, Tomo was able to put in a stop to see his homestay family from 11 years ago and enjoy a great Taco Tuesday!!
