Fairfax to NYC at "nominal"
Nov 28, 2003
We saw remarkably little traffic and got an early start, so despite the poor weather we made great time on the road. At 6:10am we left the gas station in Fairfax and I dropped Maria off at her office at 10:23am. We made two brief stops on the highway, once for a drive-through breakfast and once for a rest stop and coffee. A few years ago after dodging traffic, winding down back roads and sailing down the Saw Mill Parkway without the least bit of drama and while keeping up as much of a conversation as one can with passengers in the back of an open convertible, Karen and Russell half-joked that I should be rally driving. Maybe they’re right. I didn’t check the odometer but I can tell time and we all but flew home.
