You know when planes break down most often? Right after their annual inspection and maintenance
Could have started on this LAST year, and it still wouldn't be ready.

We changed our plans a bit. We are driving up Thursday late. I'm driving straight from ohio to the hotel. Melissa is meeting me there late Thursday. Going to lounge around most of friday then see most of you friday evening.

We are staying at the Hampton. I didn't get a chance to shop around for a deal at the holiday inn and for 4 nights the Hampton is a bit cheaper. They are only 10 min apart so we can still help car pool with the sedan if someones want to leave their Z in EWs old parking spot.

Plans starting to solidify. Looks like Megan is back in for the trip (had a little uncertainty due to doggy). We'll probably drive out Thursday, stop in Pittsburgh (she has friends living there), stay over night, and finish the drive Friday. Good stuff! Looking forward to seeing all of you!

I'm going through Indy, so I'm going to pick up JAR from the airport and head on up. With any luck, we'll be there about 8pm Thursday night. I might be a babbling idiot by the time I get there.... 11 hours on the road is more than I've done in a while....

You're be a babbling idiot because of Jar, not the drive.

11 hrs that a lot of hours for Jar to practice on another shifter at the far left middle side of Ghost!

Ghost would surely be babbling like a raped idiot because of JAR.

Susan and I plan to leave after work Thursday evening. Drive until midnight and grab a hotel somewhere. Then finish the rest of the trip to be at Madwi's by noon-ish Friday. hang at his place and go check into the hotel later in the evening.

We will stop if necessary


I typically try to limit my road trips out of town to about 8-9 hours. But that's because I still have to drive back home the same day

That is great news! I was hoping she'd be able to visit.
