We are Miami bound, Waze says we will arrive about 4:22…let’s just add 2 hours to that for Buc-ee and potty stops. So, hopefully about 6:30 we will arrive. 🙂 Have a safe trip! Boy, do we know that stretch of road! 😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually make my own at home, but a road trip calls for a stop by their store. 11 minutes ago, LUVMYGSDOG said: Have a safe drive! The go go juice looks very tasty!

Rare pirate4me2 Posted February 25, 2023 Author #110 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Note to self: it makes Chris (my dear hubby) angry when I examine my hair for split ends, then pull out my tiny scissors I carry in my purse, and start trimming them in “his” car. I offered to vacuum the dang thing out, so what’s the harm?? He then informs me that to stop this behavior he’s pulling off to let me drive…so I inform him that is unacceptable, he’s my chauffeur, and that is the only reason I allow him to come along on these cruises. The car is now silent…he’s still driving…did I win?? 🤷🏻♀️ 1 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pirate4me2 Posted February 25, 2023 Author #115 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Made our pit stop at the Buc-ees right outside Jacksonville. We got there about 12:30 so decided to fuel, potty and grab lunch from there. As I wandered around trying to decide what I wanted to eat, I saw this thing called a kolache. What is this? I asked the lady at the counter, and she told me it was a dough with cheddar and a jalapeño sausage in it. What the heck, I’ll try one! I got it and as a backup the Texas Cheesesteak Burrito. The burrito was the winner by far. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The burrito was the winner by far. A true kolache is a fruit-filled Czech pastry. Very popular in Central Texas (my car exits every time in West whether I want it to or not😉). The meat or usually sausage filled ones are actually koblasniks (sp?) but many call them all kolaches. Donut shops even call their sausage rolls kolaches which they definitely are not. Personal pet peeve😂. More than you ever wanted to know, but if you want yo kill time while driving… https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2016/11/28/502088150/the-czech-pastry-that-took-texas-by-storm-and-keeps-gaining-strength Edited February 25, 2023 by lennythenose 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pirate4me2 Posted February 25, 2023 Author #118 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Made our pit stop at Total Wine to stretch our legs. Last time we were here, in November, I found a very special bottle of wine and wanted to get another since I haven’t been able to get it back home. Turns out, I’ll never be able to drink that special bottle, as it was a limited release and Total Wine can’t get it anymore. So, to console myself, I filled my basket with other “horse” themed wines. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pirate4me2 Posted February 25, 2023 Author #123 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Made our obligatory stop at Target for forgotten items (HOW did I forget sunglasses? Sheesh Steph, get with the program!) and trucked on. Got right outside Fort Lauderdale and Chris said we needed gas, so we made another pit stop in da hood. Like…no joke y’all, I hate guns but I was ready to pounce on ours if need be, and I was planning my escape route. I REALLY needed to pee but NO WAY was I getting out of the car…unless it was to run for my life. In which case, I’ll end up dead from a heart attack anyway, my body doesn’t know how to run. Anyway, I didn’t have to run, we fueled up very quickly and got the heck outta there, and now we are dealing with freaking Miami traffic, trying to fight our way to our hotel. I’m so ready to park and be done with the road trip portion! It just solidifies…I won’t sail from Miami again, unless I’m drugged and plopped onto an airplane. In which case everyone better pray those drugs don’t wear off early! 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
