This morning we started our drive at 7:30. We checked into a motel at 4:30 this afternoon. This is definitely not our new plan, which was to drive no more than five hours a day. Times change. This trip, we want to get to see our Mississippi family tomorrow and we don't want to arrive tired, so we decided to see if we could drive for eight hours before stopping for the night. The day was lovely so we just kept coming. Our system is to drive two hours a time, then switch drivers.
We nibble a bit during the drive, then we go for dinner immediately after checking into the motel. During the drive, we listen to the radio. On the weekends, listening to football or baseball games makes the time pass. Today, we listened Texas getting demolished by U. of Oklahoma. Ken fiddles with the radio, checking other stations and never listening to the commercials. And we talk.
Tomorrow we have only 4 hours driving until we arrive. It was worth the long drive today.
