Oh my...what a trip! Our 12 hour trip seemed to turn into a 1200 hour trip. I don't know who was wrong us or the navigation system but I'm pretty sure it was us! We FINALLY left Kentucky about 9:30 am. We planned on leaving no later that 7AM. We had to go out to the barn to feed the horses and check on my sister who was riding that morning.
We then had to go to the grocery store and our few things turned into a cart load of stuff. Then we had to get gas....Well when we made it an hour to Nashville we ended up circling around the center of Nashville 4 times!! The freeways were so complicated and the navigation system kept trying to turn us around and we ended up wasting almost 2 hours there. So we took a chance....on a freeway and almost ended up Alabama! We had to turn around and drive back to Nashville (2 hours) to get on the right path and once we did it was pretty much smooth sailing from there. 12 Hours later right outside of DC my mom got pulled over. Her first ticket ever!! She just kepting telling the cops stories and stories and the poor guy just wanted to leave. He ended up letting her off with a 'failure to read a sign' ticket instead of a speeding ticket. Which is worse? Speeding ticket or telling you that you can't read? haha But we made it and had some fun stops on the way.
