I love this post. So glad you faced your fears and had an amazing weekend! I hear you about the travel fear though…my truck is a 1995, and I LOVE driving it in the city, but I've definitely had my share of anxiety taking it on solo road trips.

That's a good thing to remember! We don't always need bigger or better stuff to make things happen!

I used to be scared to take road trips in Alaska in the winter. I mean, are you just ASKING to freeze to death in the middle of nowhere?? I was the only one I knew with that specific issue though…
I'm glad you had a good weekend!

I am so glad that you were able to make it!! Sounds like a fun weekend! Girl, I feel your fear. Before last year, I was driving around a 1998 Camry. I had purchased it in college and it was nice and not old when I first got it and it had treated me well all those years. It was paid for. It got me from point A to point B. But I too had fear of traveling more than an hour from my home or where I knew people for fear of something happening. I am so glad that I was able to get a new (to me) car last year and not worry about it anymore. Although, don't we all take a chance when we get behind the wheel no matter how far we travel or how new our car is?

So glad you decided to go. It can be really scary but we usually have the best time once we actually step out of out comfort zone.

I'm so glad you made it!

I also worry that we'll break down. Or that I'll get bored. Long car trips are just not fun for me.

I make excuses too but it's because I hate to spend that long in the car, I would rather just stay home. I need to go back to NC and visit some friends, but I'm so comfy here at the beach it's hard to leave.
