Going to the beach (pray for me!)

i guess it depends on what time you come back, we came back that way Sunday and it took us about 4 hours to get home which it is usually a 2 hour trip max including stopping for potty breaks. The lanes were down to one lane for about 10 miles and it took us at least an hour and a half to get up to the bridge, cross over, and come back down onto 40 from where the one lane started. Talked to some friends that came home that Sat and they experienced the same delay. Girl you must have gotten lucky unless you were one of those people that tried to get away with going up the side of the road:lol: It was hilarious when the cop started going in reverse down the side of the road to stop them and then got out and started handing out tickets. Hey we all had to wait, don't know why they thought they didn't:lol:

 

:iagree: Only I went with one. I still take mine where no woman/man will go...may the force be with all of us! Go now...these are the memories families talk about forever. I think it is great!!!!

it was about 11 am Sunday when we passed through.....

 

That explains it, everyone was either in church or still at the beach:lol:

have fun!!!

 

*snort!!!

 

I'll look into that, Thanks!

 

We hit that on Saturday, and it was a very long delay, I think it depends on how much traffic there is, because a couple hours later our friend came through and said it only took them about 10 minutes. We actually found a place to turn around and took backroads home...I can't remember the mile marker it was, but we ended up taking a back road to 40 a different way. We had to sit in the backed up traffic for a good 20 minutes though, and we weren't even near the exit yet, and couldn't see it. So just be warned, I do think it depends on the traffic...
