The date for my annual trek to Altmar is approaching; but #1 offspring has
managed to royally screw up the planning. Okay, his college classes on
Monday morning are an acceptable reason to push the trip forward a day, no
problem. Lodging reservations were revised, and all is well.

Then there was this speeding ticket. He got PBJ, but on the condition he
complete a "Driver Improvement Program". So he loses the notification from
the MVA until the only possible way he can avoid a license suspension is to
take the class on the night we're scheduled to leave. So, instead of making
Altmar by midnight, we're looking at not even leaving until at least 10 p.m.
Nuts.

So here's the question. It's a 6-hour drive; interstates all the way.
Would you leave at 10 & arrive dead tired at 4 a.m. & try to fish on a
couple hours sleep (assuming you survive the trip) or get a few hours sleep
here, get up at 0-dark thirty & drive in the morning, missing a half day of
fishing? There's really no good answer here, I'm trying to decide which is
the lesser of the two evils.

Get a good night sleep. Drive to fish. Bonk a couple for dinner. Then
quit.
