    Hope it was all for a good reason ! !

    Sounds like when I picked up my oldest boy and his roommate from college.

    Showed up with the Uhaul at the dorm to find out the roomy hadn't even packed his stuff up yet. Waited around for 6 hours while they got there crap together. Then found out the roomy wanted to tow his broke down Neon POS back home (200 miles). Got a Uhaul dolly and then he told me the car was clear across Portland, over an hour drive away.

    Anyway after all was said and done I spent a total of 18 hours driving to, picking up, and driving back home.

    Made the roomy get a tow truck to get his car back to his home and it was only about 5 miles away.....LOL

    drove 600 miles, showered, drove 100 miles, participated in a " rally " had dinner, drove 100 miles home.......bunch of rookies......

    seriously though, driving is what I do for a living. It's tough if you aren't use to it....I just couldn't resist.......

    Aye.....twas the loading of the U-Haul that done me in. Three of us packed a 2 bedroom, living room, dining room, kitchen and storage room into a 17 foot truck. That was the only size they had.

    I like driving. Northern Ohio to Daytona Beach or to Nags Head in one day is fine with me.

    It was the truck. Had more help to unload, after a good nights sleep, so that was great.

    But man, my biceps are not used to that. :lol:
