Drive to TX

My 1300+ mile drive (a little over 21 hours) by myself in a U-Haul truck with only one day of planning went perfectly! Could not have worked out any better. I found out I was trucking it the day before... Why? My ship and fly plan imploded on Friday (*Curses U-Box*). While long, I enjoyed driving through more of our beautiful country (I can now add WV, KY, TN, AR and TX to the list of states I have been to). I saw a stunning sunset and sunrise in Arkansas (stayed the night there). I loved all the truck company on the road (I used them to figure out how fast to drive - how often do you see truckers getting pulled over?). I only had one problem on the entire trip - I got lost in the very last mile trying to find the house in College Station. Literally. Four pages of directions from Google Maps (no GPS for me) and I screw me up at the very end... But all in all, it was a problem-free (only time I had to use the wipers was to clean off bug guts) journey to my new home. Thank goodness!
