necdb3 .. NY to TN ... I'm an escapee

Luckily I'm flexible enough to wait for a couple of days of absolutely clear weather.

TrulyVintage ... I gotta say, I'm a big fan of driving at night, almost no traffic, no need to "keep up with traffic". (Bear in mind I worked nights for 40 years, I'm at my peak about 2am).

Typical for me on these trips would be leaving at 6am, arriving at destination at around midnight. So, mostly daytime driving. But I have been known to leave at 9pm and drive all night (missing traffic in the city interchanges) and arrive a 3pm the next day. I'm more likely to get sleepy at 2pm than I am at 2am.

I have an internal clock permanently altered by night shifts ... for example it's 2am right now ... this is when I do all my paperwork, research, light shop work etc. I'll be up to 7am and then have to force myself to sleep for a couple of hours in the morning, then another nap in the afternoon ... that's about it
