Lynchburg...you? Are you on the greyhound? I just couldn't do it. I rented a car and I'm leaving around 3pm.

Richmond. And yes unfortunally I am. Man if we would have spoke sooner I would have split the cost with you for sure.

I know. I would have even picked you up in Richmond. I'm taking 64 too. I'll be getting into Springfield around 6am. We will have to meet up.

My roommate said if we have our permit from our home state we will be put in group D and we will go to the DMV first tomorrow to transfer them to Missouri.

I really enjoyed it. I have to retake my blood pressure in the morning. I was nervous and it spiked. If I can't relax for the retake in the morning they will be sending me home.
