My best buddy moved to Atlanta last year for work. I made the trip down with him and flew home. Now, he's managed to score himself a great job back here at home in the Boston area and I'm going to fly down to the ATL to help him move back. Fortunately, this time we won't have to make the trip all in one day. Last year we left here at 4 am and drove straight through and arrived in Atlanta just about midnight. It had some fun moments, but they were mostly in the beginning. By the time we got there we were basically fried.

So this time it's two wild and crazy guys driving two days across 1100 miles of open road, headed home. I'm going to burn some CD's for the ride and want to put together some great driving/road songs. Any songs that consider the context and the theme of returning home would be cool, too.

What to listen to? I'm really looking forward to suggestions. :thmbsp:

The Road Not Taken-Bruce Hornsby
anything by Tim Weisberg
Ghost Riders In The Sky-The Outlaws
Take me Home Country Roads-John Denver :D for obvious reasons
Drift Away-Dobie Gray

We'll save that one for Virginia. It's as close as we'll get to West Virginia. :thmbsp:
