I don’t travel on holidays. This year I had no choice. I was dreading the trip back home. Tuesday Fayetteville NC through Atlanta at 2 in the afternoon was about normal. Except the driving rain from there to the Alabama border my first stop. The dreaded Wednesday before thanksgiving. We kept this short. Stopping in Gulfport. Was going to Slidell, sister in law tested positive. Traffic normal. Today Gulfport to Montgomery Texas, home. Usually 7 hours. Friday the big thanksgiving. I’m going to be exhausted.

I operate a highway assistance truck for a state contractor on interstate 95 north of Boston, it never ceases to amaze me how many people really have no idea how to drive. It seems the holidays bring out the worst of them. All week there have been way more accidents then normal, yesterday was fairly quiet even though there was heavy rain most of the day,, traffic was lighter than normal. It must be mating season for deer, 4 deer strikes in 15 minutes shortly after dusk last night.  Happy Thanksgiving to all!

The trip turned out to be normal to lite traffic yesterday. The big turkey gathering today.
