We’re on way to a much needed (for Roy, particularly) break of 2 weeks at the beach! We are looking forward to this! We made good time yesterday, taking 10.5 hours to cover about 325 miles. Not bad, eh? We had an half hour delay when we came upon a tree across the road, though. Thankfully there was a crew of 3 with a chain saw already working on clearing it off. Roy got out his hand saw to help out and pretty soon we were on our way again. We are so glad that our trip went so well, as it was taking as many as 15 hours during the rainy season to do the same distance. We are certainly grateful for 4 less hours on the road.<\/p>\n
