Whamrick, thanks for the pet-friendly hotel website. I’ll take some time to go through it to map our route.
Chuck, how long did it take you go drive that distance? We are thinking about 3.5 to 4 days from Phoenix to The Villages. Is that time frame unrealistic? (Barring really bad weather and/or massive traffic jams. I remember when we would travel the CT turnpike. We were always lucky that the accident was on the other side of the highway. Backups were miles and miles long!!)
I love this site! Thanks again!  |
I drove it in 3.5 days from 3 hrs North of San Francisco (too much - won't do it that fast again)(was trying to make it to TV to watch the Super Bowl with my brother, got in about 4 hours early).
4 days from Phoenix seems about right - about 500 miles a day.
Next time I drive it I'll try to do I-40 (if the weather is not too cold) to Memphis, then head south to Birmingham and into Fla.
I-10 is a bear thru the large cities (Tucson, El Paso, San Antonio, Houston, New Orleans).
