Last weekend, I headed to West TN, and this weekend I ventured to East TN. I was able to leave work a little early to beat rush hour traffic in Nashville but did have a bit of a slow down on 440 because of a wreck. My dad's GPS got me through downtown Chattanooga to my destination with no problem! There were a few times over the weekend that I questioned the directions, but I made it everywhere I needed to go. I wish I had had a GPS when I first headed off to college and then while living in Nashville. Maybe I would not have had to tape directions to my steering wheel...yes, I did do that a few times..ok, many times!
I had a great visit with a friend all weekend. We did lots of shopping (I bought more owls!), eating, and laughing. We laughed and acted like total goofballs in public places. We also almost got towed while shopping downtown. A very eventful weekend for sure! It was such a nice weekend to get away and not worry about anything! I also spent Saturday morning/afternoon with my granddaddy and had a nice visit with him. We ventured into town and went to eat at one of my other favorite places...Panera! I was sick of eating there when I lived in Nashville, but I have come to miss it a little now! I wish I had had more time over the summer to get over there because it really wasn't a bad drive. I made it in a little under 4 hours both times...I did not make any stops along the way because I wanted to beat the estimated arrival time the GPS posted...I did both times! :) The drive was also even better since it was such a pretty weekend and the leaves are starting to change...Fall is here!

This weekend will not bring any road trips or adventures...finally! Maybe I will have time to finish unpacking/repacking things I don't need. Then the next weekend will be back to AL for football!

You crack me up! Beating the GPS estimated travel time..ha! Did you wear a Depends so you didn't have to stop for a potty break? :)
No need for depends...it was only 4 hours! :) Also, I forgot to add that on the way there I wanted to get way out of Nashville before stopping because the traffic was crazy, but then I kept missing the exits I had planned to stop at, so I gave up and committed to beating the arrival time.
