If he's staying with us, he may want to bring a sleeping bag!

Ok Tommy. My Main Concern is the Green Cell Thats in GA Right now...Its moving up the coast and thats whats gonna get us wet tonight...

So When I get home from work Im gonna check the Radar again and see where we stand forecast wise...But right now it looks like it we pushed our start time ahead we would beat most of the moisture the further south we pushed...But its up to you Ill follow your lead.

I am working untill around 5 up in westchester so that will limit how much earlier I can get on the road. I will keep track of that cell throughout the day and see how its tracking, (nice having a do nothing job

) all I need to do when I get home is take a quick shower mount all the bags, check the tire pressures and can be on the road. Only problem would be fighting traffic out of the city, after 6 it should start to lighten up but you never know. I may see about getting out of here early too in case we need an early jump off.

looks like the storm is moving prety fast which is good. I guess it depends on how it tracks too. I was thinking that if it stays more inland we coul dtake 95 down to 85 and stay further east and avoid some of it, or if it moves east we take the planned route and just cut through part of it.

I am kind of in the mindset that I want to be on our way at midinight but will def wait a few hrs if it looks like we will have better weather. Plus I could get in a little nap before we go.

A nap? Who the fuck can sleep! We have a rally to attend!!!

I didn't sleep worth a damn last night and was up early full of energy.

I'm hoping work tires me out or I'm going to be bouncing off the walls tonight. My hyperness has kicked in overdrive!!!

I think if it werent for the rain and figuring out our travel plans I would be more excited. Now its jsut guarded optimism hoping we can leave on time and stick with our original plan but will have ot see how mother nature treats us here.
