Travel day 1

I started out a lot later then I wanted but still made it half way in 7 hours. I think the biggest thing to happen while driving was going over the river "Ni". I'm staying in hickville...err....Dillon, SC. over night at a faded Econolodge.(I say that because everything in the place is faded even the sign.) The biggest thing in Dillion is, in my opinion the closed movie theater ;) or maybe the place that was selling "Real Chicken". With all the breaks I went 420 miles in 6 hours.

I couldn't admit it this weekend but it was really hard for me to say goodbye to all my friends and family. Last night and the night before, when I was saying goodbye everyone was getting all emotional and I kept saying "I'll see you in..." but I was just trying to be strong for them. I'm not going to see most of the people that are really important to me for 2 months and that really scares me.


I have to admit though, the person that I had to hardest time saying goodbye to was my dog, Ginger. I won't see her till july and she doesn't really understnad that. This morning when I said goodbye I was almost in tears, because she was all happy, having no idea whats going on.

But change is life and I need to change into my Pjs. :)

P.S. If you don't like Hip-hop or Country music, there are no radio stations in VA, NC, or SC.
