Lol, your version of far and my version of far are two different lengths, my friend. I see 4 hours and I'm like "man this is going to be a long trip". You, on the other hand, are like, "Peppers saddle up! It's only one ocean to get there", lol.

Of course, I would tell you if we decided to do something like that. I would try to let the whole community know so we could try to get as many people together as possible.

Very cool! It's nice meeting a fellow Tennesteemer! We're north of Nashville, but I've been to Knoxville a few times for four wheeling trips. I'd like to head out to Dale Hollow for a camping/fishing trip.

Yeah, we go primitive camping at Dale Hollow about twice a year. It only costs a dollar a night and the children always love it. If you love four wheeling there are some great places to go around Monterey, Tn too.

LOL I think it's a Texas thing. From my recollections of my time there, I was struck by how Texans thought little of a drive of a thousand miles to visit 'neighbors'.

It never really struck me how culture can affect distance perception. But, now that I think about it...I wrote a post a few weeks ago where I had to drive about 25 minutes to the next town to use the post office. A fellow Steemian from India was like, "that's not a long drive at all"...From my understanding, it's not for someone from India. So crazy, how even geographical location even affects your perception of distance.
