Driving 18 hours to northern Michigan for Christmas


SCP

Recommended Posts

With the wife, our 3 year old and our 8 year old. Flying is almost impossible because of the connections so I'm going Family Truxter/National Lampoon style. I have done it twice before and by the time I arrive I feel like Louis & Clark. So, while you are chilling on your couch this weekend, I'll be paying tolls through West Virginia and Ohio, stopping in Toledo to poop, and hauling some serious ass up to ski and see the in-laws. This is how you build a strong family folks, by making your kids play license plate bingo, Punch buggy, and I Spy. Americana!

Are you staying at the UP?

I did a northern Wisconsin trip with my family at least once a year growing up. My family has a lake house about an hour south of Superior/Ashland. I fly there now to meet everybody.

Fuggin love it up there...but not in the winter haha

At least the snowmobiling is awesome.

have fun brother

i love trips like that (although we don't have kids in the equation yet). the wife and i did a trip to maine at the end of october. only stopped for three hours on the way up and didn't stop at all on the way back. good times

Post kids, even if the kids aren't with you, those trips have stops every 2 to 3 hours. Enjoy it while it lasts.

i've gotten a glimpse into this world having my FIL on some trips... he destroyed his knee a while back in a motorcycle accident and has to get out every hour or two to stretch out. makes the driving itself more tedious, but i still love the road. i have trucker blood in me

    • No one here is going to argue with the fact that Reich was not up to the task and ultimately beyond his expiration date in the NFL. And yes many of the things Colts fans said comically came to fruition here. At the same time. We also don't need to go around doing the Tepper's bidding by blaming it solely on him. Because there is also the reality that even after we fired Reich the offense worsened. And even after purging his staff firing our GM and hiring a new coach the Panthers started out last season with two of the ugliest games in franchise history. Let's process the entire picture here but also recognize Reich was a convenient scapegoat as well.
    • I mean, Dan went out and spent more than every team in the NFL on our OL.  Not sure that signature move is a sign of good roster building/management.   Any GM can largely problem solve an area by going that route.   And the OL is really the only position where we have actual answers.  I don't equate what we have done w/ the DL being on par w/ the OL.  I also don't think it's total fair to completely wipe Dan Morgan's existence from the vision and plans where he was asst GM.  I'm still largely of the belief.....Fitterer just took the fall for what largely was a brainstrust that hasn't changed that much. 
    • As soon as Frank signed the papers he had the $36M guaranteed. He didn't have to avoid getting fired to get it and seemingly made no effort to avoid getting fired. Truth be told he probably felt a good deal of relief that day and probably enjoyed a nice meal with his family that night discussing plans for retirement life away from football.
