Day 2

After waking up to a delicious breakfast of waffles, biscuits & gravy, and eggs & sausage (for those of us out of bed on time), we found day two to be about as exciting as day one on the road. We passed the time by sleeping, singing, playing trivia, driving ourselves insane, and avoiding motion sickness on the roads of western North Carolina. We took off from Florence, KY and drove non-stop for almost four hours to Knoxville, TN for lunch. Today's view was incredible, much better than the cloudy and rainy drive through Indiana on the first day of the trip. Many guys had't been through KY, TN, or the Carolinas before and many kept their cameras busy! Below are a couple snapshots of the beauty of God's creation we drove through today in North Carolina.

We arrived at our motel around 8:15 and grabbed a quick bite to eat before calling it a night. Since we are all baseball nuts and love stats, here are a few from the day:

Miles: 642
Time: 9 hours, 47 min, 17 sec
Pit stops: 3

and most importantly...

SENT text messages: 2245
