But it does go through a lot of small towns. We also went through Lakeland which is not a small town and has a lot of traffic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I lost my usual $100 at the casino; Marlene broke even.

Not a great choice. Inexpensive but after the Drury was a real downer. The bed, TV, shower and fridge were fine, so it wasn&#8217;t bad for an overnight. But the free breakfast was terrible, including sour waffles. Never had sour waffles before. They were inedible. Not recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will provide a TS_10 wrapup soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>415 miles via I-10, US 19, US 98, FL 60, US 27, FL 29 and FL 82.
