Home sweet home!
Posted by Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Friday, June 27th, 2008
We drove Thursday from Austin to just north of Dallas and spent the night. My hubby had been up since shortly after 3 am to get to the airport on time for his flight to Austin, so needless to say - he was pretty exhausted. Friday we were back on the road by 7:45am and headed home. We rolled in about 9pm! A seriously LONG drive!
My odometer as I pulled in my driveway…. that’s 18.4 you see… meaning it rolled around from a thousand already! 1018.4 miles from the gas station in La Grange Texas (where I filled up just before heading to Austin to pick up my hubby) to my driveway!
But…. it was worth every single mile of it to spend a week with Shannon and Madison! I’d do it again… just… not today! Or… next week. Actually… we might fly next time! ![]()

It sounds like your vehicle made it through with flying colors. Ever figure out what the noise was?
