ZnowbirdZ in ParadiZe Brent and Connie's trip home: We fueled up and went straight for Atlanta. Traffic was heavy but moving at good clip. Many troopers along the way, but it was St. Patrick's Day, it was expected and probably needed. We pressed on and became in tune with the road. Each discussed stopping goal was reached and with the energy to continue. Weathers forced us to use our Burkhas, (That's Brent's term for convertibles with their tops up... they are all over Naples! ;D) but as we traded driving duties the long haul was easily being broken. Our car zoomed along perfectly. The sights were typically interstate, but the thoughts of the past few days kept us happily rolling along. We were constantly amazed at the distance traveled and our good fortune.  
 
 Atlanta was crowded but no more than usual. This time a crotch rocket clipped by us with about two feet to spare in front of our front right fender. Alarming but fortunately I was alert and those things are on a continuous acceleration mode. A car fire brought the opposing lane to peril, a phone call to the highway patrol to report an accident of another type, but the daylight trip was great. As night came so did the precipitation. Not too much but required the top to stay up and extra caution. The usual interstate and nighttime truck traffic. A stop a a rest area found the ladies facilities closed. I cleared out the remaining men then I and another traveler stood guard as several ladies enjoyed the men's lounge. Fortunately no large angry men with bursting bladders arrived. Those that did were quite polite and understanding. Ten miles before Nashville the sky exploded. It was like an immediate whitewash on the windshield. All cars, traveling at 70to 80 mph, zigged and zagged to come to a halt. Thank goodness for the Z3. People actually were stopping on the interstate and the shoulders as well. Threading the needle we blindly slid through. As we came upon our exit less than one hundred feet further the five-lane interstate was closed. Such good fortune again we exited found our lodging, breathed a sigh of relief. Unpacked in the room, we went out for food. Found a pizza spot, grabbed one and enjoyed a good nights sleep. |
