Nice To Be Back Home
July 31st, 2008Tags: Home, Work
My trip over the weekend and up through Wednesday was a busy one. I thought that we were going to be traveling ~1100 miles, but I think it ended up being 1200-1300. It went very well though. I was technically on the clock for 65hrs throughout the 5 days, so I was feeling pretty tired when yesterday night came around. We worked from job til job until it was closing time and had to stop, only stopping to hit a quick drive thru for lunch, so that we could get everything done on time. It was a success!
Last night felt sooo good getting to sleep in my own bed. Some of the hotel beds aren’t bad, but there is nothing like sleeping at home.
I love the trips away from home like this because it is neat to see different towns and cities and what other places are like other than home. Hendersonville, North Carolina had probably one of the nicest looking towns I have seen. It reminded me of some of the ones you see on TV shows. At one of the hotels one night I saw on some brochures that we were a few miles from Chimney Rock, North Carolina. I grabbed this pic online, but that looks like it would be an awesome site to see. There is supposed to be a park there with it, so that would definately be a neat trip one weekend to check out.

Welcome home, Shane! Sounds like a wonderful, if hardworking trip. I surely know what you mean about your own bed. Nothing better.
I’m glad your project went so well, and I hope you can get some rest now. I remember you’d said you needed some more sleep even before the trip! North Carolina seems very beautiful from what you’ve described. I’ve never been there, but I really ought to go because I have some family living there now.

Muse - Thank you! Yep, it is finally time to rest up some. I can’t wait to sleep in late!
North Carolina is a very beautiful place. The mountains are just truly awesome. You should definately check it out sometime when you get a chance!
