We are home. I was very concerned about today. I thought the car would give us problems with the lube pump. Honestly the trip has been a bit challenging but I did my 100 miles and it was gorgeous so going with it. Well the plan was to pull out at 9. It was 10 am and on the road. First problem issues in Knoxville actually took us around the by pass in 640. Not much you can do there was an accident and 640 was faster. Only problem we both needed a bathroom stop.
Once around the accident was moving but no rest area. It was not pretty there was no talking or drinking or eating. Focus was on holding the bladder. Well rest area was at mile 45 but a pilot at 56. We took the pilot. Regardless we will have to stop twice. The pilot at mile 56 was great and the fact that we could pee. After that stop we were able to chat and eat and drink. I was terribly thirsty but was not drinking.
Slow down in Chattanooga but no big deal. Then heading towards atlanta. Storage is north of the city had to get to exit 267. Next gas stop was 296. As we were getting closer to the gas 75 south was shut down. I started freaking out wth is going on. Can you believe this, POTUS and VPOTUS were in atlanta, ugh. Well stopped for gas and that was a debacle, just crowded, lost about 25 minutes to get gas. The good thing is by then south bound had opened up and no issues getting to storage. Told them we would be there about 3 and it was 3:30, I wS secretly hoping we would have been there by 2. Ok so at 4 we pull out of storage, it is normally 30 minutes home no traffic. Google said 46 minutes. Well it was a cluster. We actually did fine driving south on 75. See if you can check out northbound in the pic.
Well northbound shut down for POTUS. This meant side streets in the city a cluster. We waited a long time after getting off 75 but pulled into the garage at 4:50. We got everything up and then walked to Whole Foods to get dinner.
Mallory is out.
Time for bed soon and a cold run tomorrow. Hopefully the hip is fine during the run. I had no issues walking around today. We also have a massage scheduled for tomorrow,
Thanks for following along. Next trip is to the fort in January.
