drive home

Did last minute packing and loading of the bike onto the rack. I am taking Libbie's non electric bike home to get it out of the way in the shed. Left at 8 AM. Had a little trouble with slow traffic an exit before I-4 but all cleared up as I went through Gainesville onto 301. There was heavy truck traffic on 301. I stopped for gas in Jacksonville on I-10 at an easy on easy off Pilot gas station. I continued and was happy at how empty 95 was through Georgia. I listened to a combo of Met Opera and 50s on 5 as well as a touch of 40s on 4. Next gas stop was exit 170 just past Florence. I wasn't sure I could make it that far but when I pulled into the Pilot station my range showed 70 miles to empty. I only took 10 gallons, the light wasn't even on. Gas was 1.92 per gallon. The remained of the trip was easy, twilight struck as I turned onto I-40 and by the time I got home at 7:33 it was dark. The trip took 10 1/2 hours which is excellent and is due more to the fact that I didn't stop for food. At home I went over to Chipotle for the first time and had a Burrito Bowl. It was outstanding. I would like to do that again. Because Iw as a first time customer my meal was free. Hard to believe. |
