Chewing up the Miles

 

On the Road Headed South
Near Smithfield, NC
April 7, 2025

Chris and I headed south today towards Florida. We started the day at about 4 AM in Elkridge, MD, in a drenching downpour, but by about Richmond the rain had stopped and the road dried. We made South Carolina by about 1015, leaving us just over three hours to our nighttime hotel. 

The race to end the drive and arrive at the hotel for a much needed nap ended about 2:30 PM in Brunswick, GA. Brunswick is about 2/3 the distance to Tequesta. I like short second days because in my mind I'm always thinking: "Are we there yet?"

All-in-all it was a good day on I-95. Even the South Carolina roadways were not clogged and we proceeded smoothly. We were also blessed in that the two major traffic tie-ups we spied were on the northbound side.

Hopefully, we arrive in Tequesta tomorrow about 1 PM.
