I really didn’t want to leave the 80-degree temps of Miami, but indeed I’m headed back to cold Ohio, and eventually to the even colder/snowier Troy, NY. We left relatively early from the Red Room Inn, Miami and hit several traffic snarls along the way to Savannah, GA where I am tonight at another Red Roof Inn.
The traffic reports on the radio explained the traffic problems as vacationers returning north. I guess that could describe us, although that didn’t make me any less unsettled. A trip that should have taken 8 hours ended up taking almost 10, and that was with me driving as fast as possible. At many times along the interstate, we were traveling at 25 MPH or less, and a few times sat completely stopped!
Tomorrow we will make the 11 hour trip from Savannah, GA back to Kettering, OH. Should be mostly uneventful, but unfortunately the days of short sleeve shirts and shorts are over for the next few months
But I’m looking forward to eventually getting back to Troy, snow and all!
