TN5 Hop 3: Flagler Beach FL to Worcester MA
1436 miles via I-95, Merritt Parkway and I-84, about 960 miles on Amtrak and 220 tow miles to return the RV to Ft Myers. Cumulative tow miles: 457. Cumulative truck miles: 1675. The additional truck miles were accumulated in traveling between the Bulow RV Resort and the Jacksonville Amtrak station, visiting the Florida state parks … Continue reading
Hospital drama and the radical reshaping of the TN5

227 miles via FL 31, US 17, FL 557, I-4, I-95 and FL 100. Cumulative tow miles: 227. Truck miles: 237. Cumulative truck miles: 237. This was not a fun hop, primarily due to I-4 through Orlando. I think I-4 and I-84 in CT are competing to be our “least favorite” interstate. Both are very … Continue reading
