I just arrived home in Pocatello at 8:30 MDT Saturday night. My arrival at Salt Lake City to return the rental car occurred at 8:30 PM Friday night. Childersburg, AL to Salt Lake City, UT in just under 48 hours.
It was a tough drive, but I think it was the right decision. My wife picked me up at the Salt Lake City airport at 8:45 PM and stayed at a Holiday Inn for the night. Our plans to attend the Crossroads Gun Show were retained. It was a good finish to a long trip.
I hope your family is doing Ok in Jasper. I'm wondering how the folks in Childersburg faired. The hotel was just plain flimsy.
Glad to hear you made in home safe and sound. Sounds like one wild, but necessary, ride.
Stay on a safe journey Myr
