the idea: relive family memories by driving from CT to MI instead spending more money to fly
All in all, this was actually a great idea. Having only just gotten home after twelve and a half hours in the car at one in the morning, I am slightly less enthusiastic than I might be, say, in a week. When I was in late elementary school we did this drive and more, going all the way to the top of Michigan instead of just to Flint, several years in a row.
Now, as we prepare for my sister to head of to Japan at the end of the month, it was only fitting to do it one more time.
