Day two of the trip. The house we stayed in was nice, I did stretches in the morning and felt better. We left at a reasonable hour.

We left at a reasonable hour, got about an hour down the road and got stuck when traffic stopped completely due to a really bad accident. Not sure exactly what happened but there was smoke and multiple large rescue trucks going by on the shoulder. We sat there for probably two hours before they started letting people use the one off-ramp. The entire eastbound was closed and backed up about 11 miles.

Meanwhile, the Airbnb hosts told us we had left some meds in the refrigerator. So when we did get moving, it was to turn around and go back in the direction we had come from.

Lunch was so-so pizza. I got pizza sauce on my new white Little Big shirt.

ALSO my friend who was supposed to be caring for Vindaloo didn’t respond to my messages asking how she was doing. It’s 1:30am now and he still hasn’t. Messenger says he hasn’t been online. Our plant sitter eventually was able to take care of the cat, but… yeah, not good. I don’t know what happened to him. This is my kind of chaotic goblin friend who just got out of prison, so who knows.

Anyway, around 5pm we got back on the road, detoured around the interstate mess, and drove the 7.5 hours to the next house.

Ugh
