Day 10: Drive, and Done
I made it. I’m now at my brother’s place in Jersey, where Thanksgiving will be taking place. I drove
clear across the United States! It sure beat sitting around in my apartment all day long.
Today’s drive was pretty rough - even though it was a straight shot from one end of Pennsylvania to the
other, it was incredibly foggy and raining pretty heavily the entire time. I could barely see the cars in
front of me for most of the day. I didn’t stop to see anything today except for rest stops on the
Pennsylvania Turnpike - whose union happened to go on strike today. They saved me about fifteen bucks,
because there were no toll takers to work the toll booths, so they didn’t collect tolls today. Go
union!
I’ll be hanging out here for a few days, so I’m not going to update on a daily basis for a bit. I’ll put
up yesterday’s photos soon. In the meantime, gonna sleep, hang out with family, do laundry, catch up on
emails and news, find out what’s gonna be on sale on Friday, and start planning the return drive. In
addition I think we’re going to Atlantic City on Sunday so hopefully I’ll get some craps action going as
well.
Have a good Thanksgiving everybody!

Damn. You made it! Now there’s no going back…. Except after Thanksgiving when you gotta turn around and go back to Los Angeles. Have a good one!
now that i came all the way over to sit in the box for you, you logged off.
Happy Thanksgiving Jung! You did what many of us would like to do. Are you going to be driving back the Southern route and stopping? Or just one long haul back?
