The bed cover did a great job with all the luggage and a 150 qt max cold Igloo ice chest that was as big as a coffin!!
Sounds like a great trip..

It was. I've got two nephews that moved to the Charlotte area so we rented a lake house to have a family get together for New Year's. Wife's sister and her husband drove down from Maryland to join the crowd. We had a great time except for the 800 mile ride back home Saturday...I drove the whole way and it was the most miles I ever drove in one day without a co-driver.

Doubled that would be close to 800 miles...right? We had to go through Atlanta midday Saturday and had a one hour delay with a traffic jam so that slowed me down.
