i dont think its a must , as long as its not out of the way too much ~ :)
its a cute little place ~ i might even opt for the $35 room so i have a little more privacy if they have it available when i get there . thanks for showing that to me ! :) i feel a little more confident about this trip now ~ knowing i dont have to worry about being sleepy and wanting to rush there ~

i know how to change a tire ~ so that dont worry me to much , but if i do need more assistance , i think my dad does have some kinda roadside assistance (the car im taking uses it too), not sure if its AAA or something else though ~

ill be getting a nice map , and people told me i shouldnt print out the road by road thing , but i think im still going to do that , so i can know what the roads and highways are called .. eaiser to look at paper that says it in big words then having to focus on small print on a map i think .. i wont be relying on them TOO much though .. just to make sure what road to be on and all that .. and GPS will be more of a safetly blanket then anything , ill make sure what its telling me is whats on my map i been studying the roads , going to google maps earth and checking out what the roads look like and whats around there , so i can see if i can spot them when im driving ~ .. lol

i got 17 days till i leave on my trip and im getting really excited about it now ~ :) the fear is barely there ~ :D
