psipsyRoad Trip highlights and observations so far, in absolutely no order:
Virginia and Maryland were totally kicked in the balls by last Friday's storms. IN.THE.BALLS.
Stopped at LegoLand, which officially opened October last year, which to me is 30 years late. I have so much to say about this later.
Got as far south as Key West. As vacation destinations go, it lives up to the hype. I will have to return.
The red and green hotel coupon books may have the price edge when it comes to stopping for the night, but the Priceline app on my phone can find places that still have vacancies.
Florida is a deceptively large state. And the water tastes funny.
I'm wondering if the legends and horror stories associated with I-95 are simple myth, or I'm seeing it on some off-times, or I'm so jaded by my experiences with running the gauntlet between Baltimore/DC more times than I can count and dealing with that gladiator fight called I-695 at rush hour on a daily basis, but to me it was like any other semi-rural interstate. Although, I must say that on my way down, I noticed the northbound lanes had an endless convoy of power and phone utility trucks, on their way north to assist with cleaning up the storm damage.
From where I'm typing this, I could be back home in about a day. But then I would still have 3 days left. It would seem a terrible waste to end the trip so early. So I won't. I'll figure something out.
