Out of Paducah
We were fortunate enough to go to Florida over spring break and we drove straight through on the way home. An arduous drive, but not without its delights; chief amongst which were some great family time and seeing a previously unviewed region of our Country.
While streaming north through Nashville, the seventy mile per hour traffic suddenly hit a parking lot, as I-65 North was confoundingly congested due to the hardening of that great, four lane artery down to a single lane. We quickly opted for "the road less travelled"; I-24 West through northwestern Kentucky and southern Illinois. Despite our GPS' incessant scolding for ignoring her instructions, it proved to be a great decision.
