I'll post totals and conclusions tomorrow; right now, it's just good to be home.
Today’s statistics:
- Started driving: 7.50 EST
- Finished driving: 20.28 CST
- Miles: 762
- New States: 3 (we nearly did a ten mile detour into Florida, but every second counted)
- Favourite place-name: Iota, Louisiana
- Tank fillings: 3
- No. of times tank empty light came on: 2
- Emergency rest room stops: 1
- No. of traffic infringement notifications in mail: 1 (it was Mike)
- Breakfast: Super 8 Motel, Atlanta, GA
- Lunch: Cracker Barrel, Moss Point, MS
- Dinner: Chilis, Beaumont, TX
- Either google maps, our milometer, or my spreadsheet is wrong. I tend towards Google maps. It says our journey today should have been 793 miles, and that doesn't include the various small detours for meals and gas stations... A very brief google seems to imply this might be because the earth isn't a perfect sphere - ooh!
- Being able to put the clocks back an hour when you're an hour into a long journey home is blissful.
- North Dakotans just don't leave the mid-north.
- The cat has NOT been pining for us.
