Yeah, the last time I did it I drove 25 hours from minneapolis to atlanta starting at 5 in the afternoon. We stopped in Paducah, KY for waffle house at 4am (it was awful), Nashville for Bongo Java, and Hatch show print at 9am, Lynchburg TN for the JD distillery (Goose wasn't doing tours so we didn't stay) then meandered the rest of the way down. We got to Atlanta around 5. Slept for 3 hours, found some dinner and then crashed. The next day we headed out to Savannah.
It was really frustrating because I can change a tire and I would have changed this one and not called for a tow but I could not get the wheel off. The tow truck driver came out and he was all cranky because we got him out of bed and so he was going to show us dumb girls a lesson. He couldn't get the tire off either. I didn't mind that particular flat tire, the trip was a last minute jump in the car and go kind of thing and I just figured it was part of the adventure.
I miss road tripping like that. I had cats at the time and it's easy enough to leave them with enough food or have someone stop in. Now I have two dogs and it requires more planning.
food for a car trip 2593aem Stopping at restaurants can take up a huge amount of time. An 8 hour drive can turn into 10. We drove...
