More Missives from the Mule
After yesterday’s unexpected scramble, the boys have really come
together like a finely woven fabric. We
are now all taking separate vehicles and driving solo for the nearly 865 miles
from Tallahassee to Mount Vernon. Bubba
gets partial carpooling credit for the last 300 miles by hitching a ride from
the Mule in Raleigh. I hope I made those
reservations for Sunday night
since everyone keeps asking for the street address for the hotel in Mount
Vernon. Will the fearless five actually
arrive remains the looming question.
Last minute preparations and checklist packing are
nearly completed or about to start, however sloth spousal units keep adding to
the must-do-before-you-leave list.
A man, even a manly man, can only do so much before he says, “I’ll make
it up to you when I get back.”
With the trip becoming closer to reality, excitement is
building. Like most years, our biggest
challenge will be getting to the start line.
