Important!: So I decided to go lower...not much, but lower without a doubt.

no worries, we will be here til late I am sure. You've been before, if you decide to come out, let us know and we will get you the address
 
no, not really, 35 can be a bitch from your area, but I drove that way from the airport the other day home...I sat in about 20 minutes of traffic. NOT stop and go very much at all. 121 is a breeze, slowest I did was 65
 
when i got off work around that time it was cake unless there was an accident and all the rubber neckers slow down and such
