This last day on the road could have been a sentimental journey had I not felt so eager to get off the road. I was within a few interstate exits of my birthplace (Birmingham) and other haunts of my youth. But it was a lovely drive and the deeper I drove into the South, the more red bud and dogwood trees I saw in bloom.
As mentioned previously, I enjoy finding local restaurants and motels, but I must admit that Starbucks was a welcome site after two hours of driving on only the watery brew furnished free at the motel. And when I had to stop mid-afternoon for a conference call with a prospective client, I was fortunate to find another Starbucks.
The last 100 miles was a taste of life to come - bumper-to-bumper creeping through Atlanta area rush hour. I don't know how people do this all the time! I will do my best to avoid it as much as possible. I am so thankful to have arrived safely.
Thanks to all who have prayed for my safe travel!

Glad you made it Sue. I think I heard at PEO on Wednesday night that you will be staying with friends near your mom and dad's. We are finishing up small details for convention and will miss your colorful ideas. How are things going? Judy C.
