By now I am sure you have heard that there is a new Bass Pro shop opening in Manteca. Marshall is very excited about this new store, as I am sure you are too. Because of the importance to both you and Marshall of this new store, I thought as I drove by the construction site, and I would stop and take some photos for you, so that you can see how the construction coming along. After exiting the freeway I turned, and the store is located along a long frontage road. As I approached the site I noticed that the gate is open, and the word trespassing did cross my mind, but I went in anyway. I got some great shots of the store which are posted below. As I drove around to the back of the store I notice a very large security camera kiosk that was provide by Manteca police department. I also notice a black SUV quickly coming my way, so I turned around fast and stepped on it.
As I get back on the frontage road I notice this SUV is not just out for a drive, but after me. As you remember from my youth I am capable of swift, speedy driving. As I approached the intersection/overpass I could see my freeway entrance. At that moment I could also see Manteca police coming with lights flashing. I think they were coming for me. I catch a glimpse of the man in the SUV and he is a construction worker pointing at me. The freeway entrance is a short jot to the left, and as luck does follow the Irish, there was a small break in the traffic, so I got out of the Manteca police’s way…really fast. The SUV guy could not get through the traffic, and I went on my marry way.
I guess it is better to beg for forgiveness, than to ask for permission!
Enjoy!
