I leave when I want, a little 5 hour energy to make it home.

And no douche next to me on a slam-full flight wanting to be my best friend for two hours.

I hear you, the airport in Atlanta is one of the worst in the country, flights seem to be delayed there everyday.

I guess I am lucky here in Houston I have rarely had issues. I would not ever have to go to Atlanta unless it were my destination I can fly direct anywhere I need to go.

When I lived in Baton Rouge at a small airport my opinion was different.

Personally I prefer to simply not travel.

He will die as the richest man that ever lived though so what he is doing is working I guess.
Lol....traumatized the kid. I made a voyage with him one day also. I didn't know whether I should hang on or jump out and try to save myself!!!

Matthew did look a little worried! I think Mason would have enjoyed the road trip more.

And I hate McDonald's food!

Now that you have your daughter married off it is time to upgrade to just a classic model in the 90s.

I used to love to drive everywhere but over the years I find myself getting very sleepy on long drives now. Longest trip I ever made straight was 16 hrs only stopping for fuel and food. I couldn't do it today!

Driving vs. Flying depends on one thing...how many kids you have to buy tickets for. In my case, it's the me, the wife and three kids. That costs a lot to fly....and then you have to rent a car.

We drove to Colorado this past Christmas and it really went well. I prefer driving so I can take all the luggage and crap that I want.

Traveled to Gainesville several times to compete in college...13 hours on a cramped bus with a bunch of loud people was not fun...I would fly if I could/had to go back. The 7 hours it takes to drive back to DFW is almost too much. Almost.

Agree on the number of kids, that can drive your cost up significantly
