24 hours- Getting to Panama City Beach

Or, something to do when you are driving all day and there's nothing else to do.


Friday, March 2nd
5:45pm- While Christi is cooking dinner, the sink clogs.  #beginbattle
5:50pm- 1/2 Bottle of Liquid Plumber
6:20pm- Another Half Bottle of Liquid Plumber
7:00pm- Linds goes to Target. Returns home with more Liquid Plumber and rubber gloves

Saturday, March 3rd
12:30am-  Lindsay finally defeats the sink as we take off the trap.  It took 2 bottles of Liquid Plumber, a grilling utensil, plastic gloves, and a bucket.  #singleladiesvictory
1:15am- Go to bed
5:45am- Get tornado warning text forwarded from student.  "Are we still going?"  You bet we are.
7:15am- Linds and Christi leave house
7:30am- Meet students
7:40am- Stop at Chick-fil-a
8:00am- Get on road
8:06am- White Stripes' "Seven Nation Army" plays on radio; ushers in first, second-wind
8:30am- Pass sign that says "Mass SunJOam."  After a little decoding, we realize it was supposed to say Mass, Sun. 10am.
9:25am- Christi accidentally uses the Men's Restroom in a Walmart.  #oops #disgusting
10:15am- Cross into GA
10:58am- A person in the car in front of us is beating a kid in the back seat.  As Christi is reenacting it for Lindsay, who didn't see it, the students in the car behind us text us:  "Stop beating Lindsay."
11:36am- Stop at Cracker Barrel.  This Cracker Barrel had the worst water ever.  It tasted smokey/chemically.  We all got new drinks, except Grant, who thought it was fine.  #chemistrymajor
11:41am- Elliott, a guy,  goes to the bathroom and comes back and says, "You know how I've been following Christi in everything she does lately?  I just walked into the Men's Restroom too."
12:45pm- Back in action.
12:47-pm- Pass bubble-gum pink fire truck.
12:57pm- Cross into FL.  There was a notice under the "Welcome to Florida" sign:  "Not a Photo Opportunity" We wanted to get a picture, but...  #googleimagesfailedme
12:58pm- Begin incessant rain.
1:47pm- Pass yellow sign that says "Fog Smoke." Don't know what that means.
2:34pm- Pass a slew of police doing a man-hunt on the interstate outside of Live Oak, FL. #cantfindinthenews
2:41pm- Enter into what can only be described as "Fog Smoke."  We decided this is where they make the Cracker Barrel water.
3:00pm- Still waiting on our second, second-wind.  #nevercomes
3:46pm- Home stretch.  Christi takes the wheel, empowered by Diet Dr. Pepper and Sour Patch Kids.
