Oh, I thought when you said, OK it was a city nearby. I didn't realize. That's a trip but like you said, good music and or talk radio. Your funny, I know that feeling getting out of the car after a long ride. LOL!
We are kinda used to the drive. We've found short cuts and we have favorite places to stop and eat on the way. The last two times, I drove the whole 8-hour drive--hubby tends to go to sleep at the wheel if I don't constantly chatter, so it's just easier to be driving! LOL! And he can just sleep away.
