mcpapa Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 When I was working, several times I left from Maysville at 5 or so in the evening and drove to St. Augustine, getting there early the next morning. 840 miles; stopped for gas twice each time. Always felt like I was getting an extra day of vacation that way, even if I did need a couple of catnaps that first day. Sleep is overrated.

mcpapa Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Any drive that has required me to go north on I-71. Gotta be the most boring stretch of road in the history of roads. I've never been out to Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, etc., so I'll take your word that it's boring for around here. I used to drive the Bluegrass Parkway a lot. I thought that was the most boring stretch of road anywhere nearby. Until I had to drive the Western Kentucky Parkway a few times. Made the BG Parkway look like the Vegas Strip.

rjs4470 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I make the 10 hour trip back to Delaware a couple of times a year, usually once by myself. When I was a teenager, my parents twice drove the family from Delaware to Los Angeles. 3 1/2 days of driving, one way. I think we stopped and spent nights in Arkansas and New Mexico.
