[!@#$%!]

i drove from ny to new mexico in 3 days, from new mexico to hellay in a day. throw in an extra day for a chicago detour. but you dont want to do it like that. 5 days--- what's the point? you'll just end up with a backache. take a couple of weeks to drive easy down a local highway. stop in the small towns. eat at a diner. go to a bar. sleep in a cheap motel. have pancakes for breakfast. you know, enjoy.
