Good luck on the trip - that's a haul.

Someday, I'd like to see it though - got to be a really nice job.

I mapped out a route using Windows Local Live. (really a cool site). I
entered a start point at the end of my driveway and a end point at the US
Mint in the center of Denver (don't know the exact address yet). Click on
"get directions" and the program calculates the best route, broken up into
many sections, plus the overall distance and approximate driving time.
Turns out to be 2001 miles and about 29 hours of driving time.

I figure I've done the MA to FL trip many times which is just about 1500
miles. So, an extra 501 miles won't be that bad ... maybe another day and a
half of driving. I've never been out there, other than briefly at the
airport, so it might be enjoyable to see the sights on the way out. Figure
I'll get back just in time for boating season.
