I rented a budget truck to take my stuff to seattle. it cost $500 to rent, $200 on gas, $50 for motel. Took about 16 hours to drive there.

I ended up missing the flight back too, because I returned the truck to the wrong place and had to drive 20 miles back into the city (rush hour traffic - this was at 9am!) Then my cab didn't show up for 20 minutes. Very lame.

Luckily, the US Airways people were very nice and booked me onto a continental flight later that night for no charge. even better i changed from a stop over in Phoenix to a direct flight, albeit one that got in at midnight.

Now... i'm home. tired. eating mom's home made YUM.

I'm considering my second drive up to Seattle with my car. Does anyone want to drive with me for any leg of the journey?

Here's what i have so far:

houston to el paso, 772 mi, one day. stay one night
el paso to LA, ca 802 mi, one night at charles
la, ca to sf, ca, 382 mi, stay at places...stay 2 days/1night?
sf, ca to seattle, wa, 808 mi, arrive
