We started early today..far earlier than yesterday, good thing too.It turns out we needed all day to drive. I will advise the following is not a narrative. It is not completely in order.. We were out the door of the hotel by 8:00, we gassed up and headed a few exits down the highway to find breakfast. We went to “Waffle House”, the ubiquitous southern early morning, full-menu eatery. It was quite satisfactory. Prior to returning to the road we programmed GPS’s and got a clear picture of what we had to accomplish. Seven hundred forty seven miles from breakfast to bed. We started with sunny skies which soon deteriorated into leaden overcast which chased us with showers most of the rest of the way to Jacksonville. We had a brief break the last 20 miles ... read more

Hotel Problems.. Gold members of Residence Inn, Marriott should really be getting better service than what was experienced in Tallahassee! We checked in at 7pm and housekeeping were still cleaning rooms, normal check in time is 3pm, so whats going on? An apology would have smoothed things over but instead the receptionist was rude and aggresive! So Jenni had to remind her who the customer is and that it's not the customer's fault for checking into a hotel... we then left and found another Residence Inn 3miles down the road... Most of us slept ok, but for the driver and navigator it was Hell-Hotel! Children running up and down the passages, people talking and smoking under their bedroom window, this all at 12:30am and the reception guy didn't give two hoots! But later in the day ... read more

Agnes, Crenshaw, Lord Farquad, Jheff, and The Kraken converge at the new apartment (for the first time!) in Tallahassee before continuing on to the ATL to see Precious work it out with Carolina Crown. We thought it would be appropriate to show Emily and Jheff a campus adventure in true trifecta style...much mischief ensued. ... read more

On our way to home sweet home. Of course we had to pull over to see the Tallahassee Auto Museum while we were here. Unfortunately they are not open yet, so we will continue on. They have about a hundred of the finest automobiles, including an 1894 Duryea, the oldest known surviving fully manufactured pre-production Duryea. The last 100 miles is always the longest, and we make one last stop at Chili’s Restaurant for a late lunch, knowing that there is no food at home, and going to the grocery store today is not in my immediate future! Home sweet home. Thank you Lord for bringing us home safely. And thank you all for following us on our journey by way of this blog. We hope you enjoyed it! I know it was a trip we ... read more
