Escape from St. Louis
I've been stressing out at work, and I need a change of scenery. Fortunately, I've been able to schedule some vacation time, so I'm leaving on a road trip to Florida in a few days. It's a long drive for a solo trip, but the way things have been going, I want to see a bit of America along the way, just to make sure it's still there. (Watch enough news, and you can start to wonder.) Once I get down to Tampa, I'll be able to spend some time with my cousin and his family, and maybe catch a little bit of sun by the Gulf. I doubt I'll be posting much during this trip, but maybe I can recharge enough to start posting a bit more regularly once I return; maybe I'll even have a few pictures to post.
If you happen to be coming through Athens, let me know!
The way I'm planning to split up the drive, I know there's no way I could manage a side trip to Athens on the trip down. I might drop you a line before I start the return trip next week, but don't count on it. I appreciate the invite, though!
