Tomorrow morning we will join all of you crazy summer travelers on the road of our fine country. Heading to NJ for some fun and sun on the Jersey shore. Lord willing, the drive will take under 10 hours, though I have made it in 9. My guess is that I will be making great time until we hit our nation’s capital, and then it will be bumper to bumper from there to the beach. I am guessing this 9-10 hour trip will end up being more like 13-14. So there I will be, in a car with three women, the one in the front exhausted and drifting in and out consciousness from working up to the time we leave to get ready, and the two teenagers in the backseat will either be out like lights or hooked up to an Ipod or DVD player. I love family time.
Wow, that really sounds negative. On the bright side, I am destined for a good sub, caramel corn on the boardwalk, a real bagel,and a walk or two along the waters edge with my bride of 20 years! It’s all good!
