Heading South Day 1
*** long post, short vacation.
Well I can't take it anymore, I need to go on a road trip. My cousin Anne is looking to move to Charleston SC area and I have "volunteer" to meet her to house shop and hang out. So the first thing I did was purchase a gadget that will make it possible to listen to my CLASSIC Ipod with a speaker in the car and in the hotel room. SCORE! Then I entered a contest and won a Yeti Roadie 20! It came just in time for the trip. Double SCORE! Its packed, ready, and strapped into the front seat. The night before the trip, I created a playlist for my road trip. All songs related to travelling. My classic Ipod has on it 10,200+ songs. I was able to make a list of over 120 songs. That should get me to my destination. And it wouldn't be a real road trip if these songs were not included: Mona Lisa, Them Bones, and On the Road again. (songs that were ALWAYS played on the cassette player when we did our vacations back in the 70's. And yes it was torture for my brother and I growing up in this environment. But it gave us great stories to share) Lastly this trip I had a friend join me, Flat Mrs. Doughton. If you are familiar with Flat Stanley this is along the same lines, but it's one of the 2nd grade teachers where I sub. I am going to have fun with this. Joy is going to be sorry she gave me one of the Flat Mrs. Doughton. (social media tag: #flatstanleysocialdistancing, #flatdoughton )
After working, I headed out: first stop Chambersburg Pa and Comfort Inn. Might as well take advantage of my employee discount on this trip. Though on this leg of the trip I went with a mixture of Tom Jones and Pitbull. Those two kept me awake, also a cup of ice coffee with STOK espresso shot did the trick.
