Sorry for the slightly late post – digging out the computer and putting a note on our blog after a 26+ hour drive wasn’t high on my list! We arrived back home early Sunday afternoon, after driving straight through from Orlando. We ran into a couple of accidents in Florida and Georgia, then the big slowdown – a blizzard between St. Louis and Kansas City — in the dark!
I had one idiot try to pass me at one point and he slid into the ditch…..trying to go around me at 70-75mph on the snow-packed drifted passing lane. Serves him right! I waited to be sure he didn’t roll over, and continued on my way.
Other than gas and restroom stops, we only stopped at a Waffle House for breakfast on the north side of Kansas City.
Total trip drive time from start to finish, 61 hours, 13 minutes — 3,139 miles — 22.7mpg.
Great to be home!
I hope you took lots of pictures. Looking forward to hearing about your trip, and very glad you’re home and in one piece.
We did – the boys got some of our old smart phones for Christmas (minus the phone service) and went nuts. When we’re done with pinewood derby and catching up from the holiday I’ll be showing them how to post to the website!
