STuck with free time. What now?

[SlowButSteady]

Several months ago, I contracted with a relief veterinarian to work Mar 3-4-5 for me. I was hoping to be one of the parents allowed to chaperone my son's Barrier Island trip.

I guess we're not popular enough to go. I just found out today that they don't need me (or don't want me).

So I'll have a Sat afternoon-Sun-Mon-Tue-Wed to pay a woman a lot of $$ to work in my place while I sit around and twiddle.

One thought was to do a long bike (bicycle) ride. I could start at Little River, SC, just above North Myrtle Beach and ride to Savannah, GA. It's kind of something I've always wanted to do. I've ridden much of the SC coast: Horry, Georgtown, Berkely and Beaufort counties. To ride from NC to GA across my little state is kind of a dream.

Or I would start on the NC line in the mountains and do a Mountains to the Sea ride.

Only thing is, you need ground support or someone to meet you at checkpoints with your stuff. My bike isn't tricked out for touring. It's just a road bike. And my husband wouldn't want to do that...he'll be working and sitting around trying to figure out what kind of trouble our son is getting into.

Any one have any ideas?
