The general outline for this entire trip was one day of driving, checking into the AirBnb during the evening, having 1 full day to explore the area and then leaving the next morning for another full day of driving. The only exception was San Antonio where we decided to stay an extra night. AirBnb I booked every AirBnB weeks in advance. The process was easy and only took a span of a few hours to book accommodations for the entire…
March 22-23, 2016 Day 1 Driving from SATX to Las Cruces was such a walk in the park! 8.5 hours primarily on I-10W! Because of switching over to Mountain Time, we arrived at our AirBnb in Las Cruces by 2:15pm. Corey and I didn’t really have much planned for NM besides going to White Sands National Monument. The plan was to just chill for the remainder of the day, grab some take out and then go star gazing. I was…
March 18-21, 2016 Day 1 The drive from NOLA to SATX was supposed to be around 8 hours, our shortest leg of the entire road trip. We were pretty psyched that it was only 8. At this point, that’s nothing. The plan was to leave NOLA by 8, get there around 4 or 5pm and then explore the Riverwalk for some dinner. Once again, things didn’t go as planned. Right when we departed NOLA we saw signs for the closure of the highway…
March 17-18, 2016 The plan of leaving Asheville at 1 or 2 did not happen at all. Corey slept at midnight and soon later in a half conscious state, kept muttering in his sleep about needing to close the doors. He was in the middle of having a nightmare and clearly paranoid. Then I totally got creeped out that he was having some premonition about a murderer about to break in and got up to lock both doors leading to…
March 14-15, 2016 Our original plan was to leave Boston at 1am Monday morning to get through NYC before rush hour picked up; however, Corey wasn’t even close to being ready when he got home at like 9:45pm on Sunday. Extremely frustrating!!!… but that’s a whole other story. We finally left at 4am and I drove the first leg until 7am. We were just beginning to hit traffic when we decided to get gas and take a car nap. I…
