Virginia


Moved back up to VA for a while.  Ann came down to help me cart my stuff up with me.  She drove her car, I drove mine.  We left Orlando around 4 p.m. on Saturday, driving in rain from South Carolina to Virginia, changing to snow when we hit Emporia, and finally arrived in Gloucester around 11 a.m. Sunday. 


Quotes from the road:
Ann to me: You have to pee again?

Ann to me (later): Yep, I have a big one.
Me: I have bladder envy.

Ann to me: We're going to be driving in snow.
Me: Yay, it's an adventure! You know what an adventure is, don't you? An adventure is the same thing you called a giant f$%^ing pain in the arse while it was happening.

Me to myself: Never EVER get coffee there again. EVER.

On Long Journeys

Expect delays. 
Expect boredom.  
Expect fatigue.  
Expect a warm welcome at the end of the journey.  
Do your best to enjoy the part between the beginning and the end.
