Hey Letsbuggy,
As per our conversation at the meeting Monday night, I timed myself from my house to Commerce yesterday (I was going to Lavonia, about 30-40 miles on up the road past Commerce).
I was wrong about it being 2 1/2 hours to Commerce. It takes LESS than 2 1/2 hours!
I walked out the door at exactly 5am yesterday, got in my bus and headed out of LaFayette. At 5:35 I reached the interstate at Resacca. By 6am I was at GA Hwy. 20. At exactly 6:30 I was merging onto I-285. At 7am I was back up to GA Hwy. 20 on the I-85 end . . . and at exactly 7:26 AM, two hours and twenty six minutes after I walked out of my house, I passed under the overpass at the Commerce exit. :thumbs-up:
On the way back, I was making even better time until . . . :cussing: . . . well, I'm sure someone will have some comments on "the rest of the story!" :oyvey:
So, the bottom line is, yes, you CAN make it from my house to Commerce in LESS than 2 1/2 hours in a bus! But, DON'T! :spank:
