Driving to Edmonton
It was a long drive home from St. Albert tonight. We left far later than we had planned; we were just having such a good time with our northern friends. Add to that the fact that we left such that we were on the road over the dinner hour and hate eating crappy fast food.
The whole way home I would picture in my mind where we would have have been had we been flying, up until just north of Red Deer, at which point we would have been unpacking the plane had we flown. It was at that point that we decided that there was no real good reason why we shouldn’t fly for these trips. Why should we bother having a good weekend away from home only to be dragged down at the end of it all because we have a boring 3 hours drive ahead.
Instead, we will rent a plane from the club from now on and to keep things interesting we will try and vary our route. Of course, it might mean that we have to eat Mac & Cheese more often… though it’ll be worth it.
