My first few posts offer profound anecdotes with witty humor. This one will have more of a reminiscent tone with an abundance of optimism. Bear with me everyone has these moments. Hint: there's a happy ending.
No need for schedules. However there are a lot of moments to recollect. Tallahassee bars are totally different than Orlando bars. Different, but loads of fun and originality. The women...don't even get me started. There's a concentration of Florida's finest in about a 10 mile radius. Couldn't help but glance in their direction, but my real motivation for visiting had the most unforgettable pair of hazel-green eyes I could ever see. However, I'll save the history on that for another blog another time.
As with all of my posts some people wonder how this could be a successful mistake. There's so much that could go wrong. Car trouble, no money, horrible weather, and dying are just a few of the possible problems. Gives one plenty of concern when considering a road trip. As a group those concerns are always in our heads, but it's how the group handles them. That's what makes a possibly horrendous trip change into an unforgettable trip. With that in mind, it's the people that make the trip. If you bring a group of diverse personalities you're playing with fire. If you pack the right suitcase of fun personalities then you're golden.
Road trips can suck. They can really take the joy and excitement out of a good idea. Especially if the drive is god awful long and everyone gets too drunk and no one gets a girl then tensions can rise quickly. Horrible mistake.
If you take the trip as an opportunity to take a possibly sucky outcome and transform it into a hell of a time and unforgettable memories. I've learned a lot on this trip and I'm writing as Erin our way back to Orlando. I could go into so many specifics, but one I'm not writing a book, and two you have to experience for yourself.
Make a mistake of attempting a road trip. It could be the worst experience ever and keep you from ever trying again. Take my word for it. If you keep your expectations low and hopes high then it's a perfect formula for memorable time.
Enough of my sentimental advice. I always ramble too much. Get off your couches and drive wherever the hell you want to. You won't regret it.
Prepare for open roads, open minds, and open opportunities thrive in the moment. And always keep those you hold dear close to you.
Road Ranger out. Peace and blessings.
