Not a good day on Interstate 95 today. I left Mt. Pleasant SC at 4 am
thinking I might be able to make it back home in a day. It's almost
17 hours by my GPS. Thought I might make it by about 9 pm.

The morning was fine but by the time I hit Virginia there were massive
log jams of traffic and delays due to numerous accidents. Pushed on to
Maryland but traffic was still heavy and slow. I started to envision
what going through New York would be like and threw in the towel. Got a
hotel room for the night. I'll leave again early in the morning to beat
the weekend rush over the GW Bridge.
