[PA-RIVER]

If I fly from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh, its a 6 hour trip. That include early arrival drive time, Parking, security groping, waiting in line, delays.

If I drive straight to Pittsburgh, its also about 6 hours. I split the drive with my wife. We take two breaks. No big deal. We save enough money for the hotel.

That’s the spirit.

A couple or three years ago, I drove rather than flew on a business trip of 700+ miles. On the way there, I stayed overnight in a motel about halfway there. On the way back, I just wanted to get home, so I drove the entire 700+ miles in one very long day.
