After having a week to catch my breath after my long Christmas road trip, I decided to take a minute to log my miles.
I have heard that whatever you are doing on New Year’s Eve / Day is what you will be doing all year long.
I hope that’s not true, since I drove 574 miles on New Year’s Day.
Here’s the recap:
Pre-Christmas to pick up college daughter from UTK, Mountain Home, AR to Knoxville, TN and back: 1,112 miles.
Holiday trip to deliver hubs from Mountain Home, AR to Colorado Springs, CO. and back. 1,696 miles. (extra credit for following a U-haul all the way out)
Total miles: 2,808
Word Problem Challenge: If an antist traveling approximately 65 mile per hour sits behind the wheel in a small Honda for 2,808 miles, while 3 young adults traveling approximately 75mph play music, eat, sleep, and stop for snacks on the same road, how many hours will it take before such artist loses her mind?
Actually we had a excellent trip. Christmas Day at my in-laws in Ponca City, OK was wonderful. And I’m not just saying that because they might read my blog.
All in all, traveling is fun, but it is good to home!
