So today I found myself making the trek from Zephyrhills Florida home to New York for the second time in 3 weeks. This time driving my Mom (and her car!) back. The good news is she had a recheck on her broken wrist yesterday and it was healed enough to take off the fixator
That's the 'before' and here is the 'after'
Just a Velcro brace!
We were packed up and ready to leave around 1:00, which is actually a day earlier than I thought so that's great. Traffic was light on 301 and we managed to go 300 miles before we stopped in Statesville Georgia around 8. We got a room at a brand new Hampton Inn and it's really nice.
It has a keyless tap and go entry which is super handy when you're loaded down with luggage like a pack mule. We went next door to the Mellow Mushroom for dinner, a place I've never been but now love. We started with the signature soup
Which we were leery of at first but loved at first spoonful. We also shared a small pizza and each had an awesome beer, Terrapin Tree Hugger. It was the special today and we got to keep the glass. Yay for free swag!
After a quick call to the husband, I'm doing a blog post and Mom is reading the paper. Maybe we'll make 400 miles tomorrow? I want to get home to this sweet face
