I'm back baby – post 272

This past weekend I helped my Mom move.  That part was easy.  The driving part sucked balls.  I put just under 2000 km on my van in 3 days.  One way trip was about 6 hours.  With the van and the trailer packed to the tits, it was about a 10 hour drive from there to the new place.  Then I had to drive home.  Well… me and my brother in law really.  He came to help me, and boy am I glad.  Just having someone to divide the driving time was a great asset.

I drove to his place on Friday (2hs) and slept over.  We left at 7:30 am and drove for about 7 hours.  Pack up the van.  Slept.  Got up and packed the trailer.  Headed out at 12:30 pm and got to our destination at 10:30 pm (10 hrs).  Slept over.  Drove back home which took another 3.5 hours.

Ugh… I don’t think I want to drive for a good long while now.

So what’s the most you’ve ever driven in one day or a short span of days.
