    Oh that's right... Well, at least you have 1,100 miles of driving to look forward to.

    I think I met you two. Do you have a dog? I thought I met you guys in Indianapolis one time. It was late. Had to end up taking a break there cause it took so long getting unloaded.

    I may just go with 27 to i4 to 95. By the time i get loaded and hit that mess in Orlando it will be late evening and I might make better time than hitting all the towns on the back roads.

    Open to suggestions though.

    I really want to hit that pilot in st marys ga tonight as almost every other stop will be full by tonight. I've never seen that pilot completely full.

    *edit*
    Just looking on Google maps and its showing that heading back through south bay going up 98 then cutting across to indian town and catching 95 that way is an hour quicker.

    Looks like mostly cane fields out that way so not too many small towns to slow me down.

    Have you ever gone that way?
