We began our slow movement out of our home state yesterday with a short run up to St. Augustine where we will spend a week. it was just under a 300 miles day that should have taken about 5 hours with stops.
Took over an hour to go from the I-75 exit at Tampa onto I-4 a couple miles due to lane blockage for an accident. Then the run up through Orlando there was a stretch of 22 miles of construction which really slowed everything down.
That 300 miles took just over 7 hours and some of I-4 reminded me of California or Illinois roads it was so rough!

We live in St. Petersburg and I really do think there is a LOT more traffic. I swear, every time we have to go I-75 or I-4, we sit in traffic. There seems to be no good time, it's the luck of the draw.
