Travel: Prologue
Yesterday I vacated my studio. Apartment manager and I did walk through and signed off everything. A completely painless process. Looking at my loaded vehicle, I decided to ship one last box via UPS. Frankly, an under-packed car appeals to me more on a security and safety level. Sent it ground, so I’ll probably beat it there.
The first leg of the journey is a prequel to the actual trip, and a drive I’ve made many times before; Raleigh. I’ll be in Raleigh all day today (11/20), and Pip and I hit the road in earnest tomorrow morning. At some point, she has promised to pack. We are planning a “dark o’clock” departure from the North Carolina… wish me luck in rousing her and coming away with all ten fingers.
For your viewing pleasure, I give you this familiar treat from the drive from Atlanta to Raleigh:
