Bon Voyage Willie!  Wish I could send you some of the cookies and brownies that Mugs and Wiggs sent me for you to munch on while you drive!  But, alas, they're almost gone and I'm 5 lbs. heavier!

Thanks everyone.  I am bunking down just east of Pittsburgh.  I am a little over 2/3 of the way there but with a dog, 20 fish (no floaters yet) and a turtle I couldn't keep pushing it.  It will be about  4.5 hour drive tomorrow.

Nice, the last leg will go quick, and you can settle in a bit and relax..

[ilroost]

hope the trip goes well for you

Thanks everyone.  I made it here safely.  It was a long drive.  I used to be able to do these in one day.  All of the fish made it too.  They were in 2 buckets with a sponge filter and heater in each.  I also brought 6 gallons of my water with me.  That water is being heated up to 80 degrees.  Since this is temporary housing I wonder what management will say if they see a 29g tank in the living room.  LOL.  My permanent place will just have to accommodate me.  I can get by nicely on 400 to 500 gallons.

Yes I found the coffee pot.  will turn it on soon.  I still have a lot of stuff to unload from the car.  The car was so packed I couldn't squeeze a can of sardines in it. When I leave here it will be in stages.  Fish first.

It's good to hear that you and your pets made it there safely.
