morning Dave(s).
How you doing Dean? 
doing okay. think I'm going to start packing the Jeep later today after my running around.
AJ Overrun robusto, looks kind of like an Oval going with my coffee.
Can you get everything in the Jeep or got to tow a trailer.  How many miles down there for you?
seeing how I don't have much to bring other than clothes and a few personal items I'm just loading the Jeep. the re-call repair I had done was for gas tank explosion problem if rear ended. Chrysler came up with the idea of installing a trailer hitch. so I got a free hitch yesterday. don't plan on hauling a trailer though. if it doesn't fit, it's not going. had thought of renting a van and dollie to haul the Jeep to save on wear and tear but cost too much. AAA figures 1,233 miles, 18.5 hours.
Trailers are a pain in the ass and kill your gas mileage so nice to avoid that.  1200 miles not too bad just avoid big cities around rush hours.  You trying to go all the way or going to sleep over somewhere around half way?
going to drive until I get tired, find a place to rest, whether cheap motel or parking area. probably avoid motels. would like to make Columbia, SC on the 1st leg.
Well make damn sure it is a safe area to stop and rest.  It will be pretty hot down there even at night.
who would fuck with an old man starting over in life?

That's where we stopped when we drove down to Disney a couple years ago. Good stopping point.

Who wouldn't is more like it these days.  Used to live there and Columbia is actually a pretty high crime city as are most of the others you will pass through along the way.

seeing how I get 25-28 MPG, gas should cost me about $175-$200.

possible a little mowing but I won't know until I check things out, it might still be to wet.
Food show went pretty well, tons of treats for the grandchildren to enjoy and I spent enough of the owners money to get a free mini IPad to give to my nephew, not a bad day plus 10 hours of overtime.

Sounds like a good day for you also Dean, I wish I could say I was going to spend the day with my sis in law but I don't think her husband would go for that.
