Should try to grow up but who knows where to start

Mileage: 2,674 Best rando: A 6-mile strip of Florida highway with at least 20 churches on it.

Happy belated birthday America!

My fourth did not get off to the smoothest start. Turns out that this race called the Peachtree 10k runs straight through town and since my friends live on that street I would've been parked in until 1 PM had I not heard about it the previous afternoon and moved my car across that street. The day was also pretty great to begin with but I was certainly fading fast come afternoon.

Lots of days of long driving can take a toll, and I certainly fought off a sickness somewhere around the middle of this trip. I've been trying to eat not terribly and keeping fruit and veggies in mind, but it's so hard and I can't keep any kind of a stable or regular diet. At least I haven't succumbed to fast food... except once McDonald's coffee.

But down to Florida was not at all awful and I even found some Georgia postcards at a cheesy rest stop to make up for the ones I accidentally sent without addressing (sorry, y'all).

I also left Atlanta with plenty of hilarious memories- like getting locked in both the pool and the parking garage. Thankfully I met some really nice folks who helped me out.

The south really is the best.
