I-95 can have dreadful traffic at the best of times and on some of those trips the traffic would back up.

As long as I get some really good editing done, I'll count it a win. And I'm totally with you about not wanting to travel on holidays.

We live in Texas and our daughters live in California and we prefer not to fly during the busy holiday season. Still, my husband and I love Thanksgiving. We have the traditional dinner and enjoy a peaceful and relaxing day. <br /><br />Hope you and your husband have a wonderful and relaxing Thanksgiving Day!
