No one should be this cheery this early

And certainly my wife was not as cheery as I at 4:20 this morning when my alarm rang. I however, popped out of bed and bounced off to the bathroom to shower and get ready. Kid, Christmas, this was how I felt.

I am not a morning person typically so this reaction was understandably odd for my wife who had begrudgingly agreed to take me to the airport two hours before she even had to roll out of bed so that I could take the trip she was supposed to get to go on. My excitement has been understandably higher than hers since we agreed we'd buy a new Corvette. When we found a 2008 Jet Stream Blue 3LT in South Carolina, with NAV and HUD, I knew it might be a winner. After some haggling, paper work, and one big angst filled 'ok' from my wife, we !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Now is the fun part for me. I get to fly in, have the dealer pick me up, and then prepare and take a 22 hour drive home. Since I have a very understanding job, I'll be taking my time: I have the rest of the week off. Follow with me as I document the trip here on oppo!!

Edit: In Atlanta Safely. Nothing exciting here as you all know who fly through ATL. More when I hit the ground in Charleston.

Awesome. Early morning driving is the best kind of driving anyways.

Packed the surface and the big camera just for documentation purposes. I'll try to keep it interesting!

it was crazy foggy this morning, sort of put a damper on the drive to the airport, which is 35 minutes away.

That is awesome! See how much interstate you can avoid for maximum fun times!

Wooohooooo. Corvette buying day is best day.

Also, the weather down this way has been a little miserable lately, not sure where in SC you're headed, but, it's a whole lot of drab and dreary and just enough water on the road to where the big negative pressure area that is the back of the car will be covered in brown waterspots.

The best part is when you're wore out from a long day of driving and you go to recline your seat... and you can't. I drove a Miata what would've been a 7 hour drive but I decided I wanted to take the scenic route through West Virginia and took over 12 hours, in February, on summer tires, through the mountains. I was so sore and tired at the end but looking back I wouldn't trade that experience for an interstate drive home.

I love driving during the darkest parts of night, although you need to seriously consider your locale before you do that for multiple reasons.

Yeah obviously don't roll around in the hood that late. Also watch out for deer.

What part of SC? I live just over the line in NC. If you need a place to stop. You're more than welcomed.

Yeah. Honestly there isn't much you can do about deer. Just don't go so fast.

Thanks for the offer! It's in Charleston, and I've got family down here for the first stop. I love the oppo friendliness!
