I think that is the most painful thing is fighting getting so tired on the road. Shaking your head, slapping your face, mega coffee anything. I bet we all have come close to the movie "Vacation" driving scene with Chevy Chase going to Wally World. If it gets that bad I usually just pull over and take a nap.

Boston MA to Ozona Tx.
Ok, I took a plane from Boston to Houston but it was a heck of a trip. Started the day at 5am Friday in Boston, worked until noon, caught a flight to Houston, stopped by the house to grab hunting gear and hit the road for Ozona. Pulled into town just in time to change into my hunting gear and head out to the lease. I did take a little nap around 2 or 3 Saturday afternoon. |

My wife and I took turns driving straight through from just outside of Buffalo, New York. It was something like 30 hours and that includes a delay due to us getting rear ended on the interstate in Columbus, OH.

Lets see....10 hours to the Diamond C and 10 hours home all alone in the car. Don't think I'll do that drive solo any more. Don't have to drive more than 30-45 to hunt elk...

21.5 hrs from Charlotte NC to our ranch in south Texas!
Brought a so called buddy from NC and told him he could kill any hogs,coyotes,bobcats,javalina, and exotics. He could not under any circumstances shoot a whitetail buck. These were the rules for months before hand. The only thing he had to pay for is fuel, food and any licenses. He had already killed a hog and javalina on the second day when he saw the biggest buck in his life. He called and asked me if he could shoot it and I said no. Long story short he threw a fit and demanded that I bring him back to Houston to catch a flight back to NC to go on a hunt to kill whitetail. So I cut my hunt short and drive him to Houston to catch a flight his mama bought him back home. So I had to drive all the way back to Charlotte paying for all the fuel!

Once drove from McAllen to my house in Colorado.
27 hours, 23 of them just to get out of Texas. It wasnt to hunt, it was to get back to my family after 6 straight weeks of work. |
