First fragfest trip:
Started from Tampa, FL. Uneventful trip to Atl, GA where I dropped off the wife and kids to spend the weekend there while I went to FF. First day on the road from Atl was probably the worst road trip of my life. I started out at 4am. The idea being I would get to FF around sunset. Somewhere around KY I have a blowout and discover that my spare has started to dry rot. Not too happy about that I start limping my way up the interstate stopping at every exit inquiring about a place to get my tires changed. I finally find someone who informs me of a sams club up the road a little ways. Well a little ways turned into about 1 hour. So I get to sams and they replace the tire, 1.5hrs later. Back on the road I'm a little frustrated, but very glad to have been able to get that taken care of and on my way again. I ended up getting lost for a little while trying to get back to the interstate, but other than that the trip went well. I was able to stop part way there where I was able to have dinner with greybeard and Apollo from DOH. (Thanks again to grey for picking up the tab.) I finally arive at FF nearer to 10pm. Needless to say if you do the math it was an 18 hour drive, but I had enough fun to make the trip again and even bring my wife.
The last fragfest was a pretty uneventful trip, but the drive up was incredible. I'm living in Atl now, so I didn't have an 8hr trip the day before, but I did end up working until 1am or later. I get home, we pack, do some other stuff and hit the road. Basically we are both so tired all we can muster is about 2hr shifts behind the wheel and then switching for the 14hr trip up. It was difficult, but we both had a blast and of course will be back again this year.
SO......I wouldn't be too concerned about jetlag.
