Atlanta to Las Vegas. Originally had planned on going all the way to LA, but decided I was sick enough of driving as it was. Couple years later I flew to LA.

A one way ticket outta the Great White North. :)

Hmm we had about 6 inches of snow last night, and saying we might get another 7-8 so that sounds good right about now.

The trains better not be late and make me miss my flight <_<

I still don't get why you would prefer Alaska over San Antonio. :huh:  I've never actually been there but if the climate is similar to Houston, which I've spent tons of time in, I'd pick it over Alaska any day... though I've heard the climate south of Juneau is actually kinda nice, as long as you don't mind never seeing the sun again.

Under 150 miles.

In the Old Country, we have invented: buses, trains and planes that fly in the sky, violating the God's laws.  :(

Somehow I found it easier to transport a car cross country by driving it then trying to load it onto a plane but YMMV.

Aren't you glad you don't have to travel so much anymore, since the tourist trap of Mammoth Cave is right in your backyard? :P
Dude, Mammoth Cave is freaking awesome.   :cool:  When they shut the lights out and asked us to be quiet, it was one of the more interesting experiences of my life.  The utter silence and darkness is nothing I've experienced before.  It seems like it wouldn't be a big deal, but it surprisingly was.

Because from April to Oct it is 80 or higher in San Antonio, fuck that.

And see the sun again? While PDH was making light of the lack of light, I'm far south enought to get about 6 hours of sun in winter time which it tolerable for the summers and 19 hours of daylight and the temps in the 70's.

So live in Alaska in the summer, and San Antonio in the winter. :smarty:

I have no desire to live in Texas at all.
If i was going to live someplace besides Alaska for winters it would be more like San Diego.
