I figured I'd start a thread to serve as a bit of a travelogue and give me a spot to post pictures of the different places I've been and things I've seen!!!
So, here's the trip:
Day 1: Pittsburgh, PA
Day 2: Charleston, WV
Day 3: Cincinnati, OH
Day 4: Louisville, KY
Day 5: Indianapolis, IN
Days 6-7: Chicago, IL
Day 8: St. Louis, MO
Days 9-16: Memphis, TN
Days 17-18: Natchez, MS
Days 19-20: New Orleans, LA
Day 21: Pensacola, FL
Days 22-24: Jacksonville, FL
Day 25: Savannah, GA
Day 26: Columbia, SC
Day 27: Greensboro, NC
Day 28: Washington, DC
At every new stop, I'll post some pictures and musings, so, if that's the kind of thing you'd find enjoyable, check back here over the next 4 weeks!
A few notes on the trip:
I plan on going to three MLB games: Cardinals @ Reds, Tigers @ White Sox, and Brewers @ Cardinals!
My brother lives just outside of Memphis, and I haven't gotten to him in the 2.5 years he's been down there, so that's why I'm staying in (the suburbs of) Memphis for a week!
In addition to my brother, I have friends I'm staying with in Natchez, New Orleans, Jacksonville and Columbia!
Amazingly, the longest single drive of my trip is the only one within a state: Pensacola to Jacksonville!
I'll post my Pittsburgh page soon!
That sounds extremely exhausting. I flew to Japan once back in 2000, that wiped me out. You really must love driving, I hate driving. But, everyone is different so enjoy it.
Ah I do love driving! I always volunteer to drive, although my friends aren't always keen on riding with me (I live by Interstates 80, 81, and 84, so that means you go 80, 81, and 84 mph on them, right?) I kept having dreams where I would drive way out west very far and such. No drive is longer than 5 hours; it's about 70 hours of driving spread out over 18 days or so
How will we know, when the morning comes, we are still human? - 2D
Don't worry, my friend. If this be the end, then so shall it be.
