OUR FIRST EVER GIVEAWAY!!!

That's right, we're having a giveaway! And since there's half a dozen of you following our blog on a regular basis, the chances of winning are really good!

My Saturday o' Fun this weekend will be part of a cross country road trip from Utah to New York. I leave on Friday and hope to arrive on Sunday. I'll fill you in on all the details on my Saturday blog entry. I'm actually excited for this road trip adventure, even though it means hours and hours in the car. With a couple of movies and books on my iPhone, I should be just fine!

So, now to the giveaway...
Google Maps is projecting the trip from Salt Lake City, UT to New Rochelle, NY will take 35-36 hours. I'm going to time it and see how long it really takes. I'm only counting drive time here, not rest/potty/food/sleep stops.

What's your guess?

You have until midnight (Mountain) on Monday, May 31st to post your guess as a comment to this entry. You only get one guess so make it good!

What will you win?

The person who gets the closest wins a $5.00 gift certificate to Mrs. Fields Cookies. Even if your guess is over, if it's still the closest, compared to all the other guesses, you get the prize.

Good luck! (To you and to me!)

I'll announce the winner on my blog posting. Since I don't get home until Tuesday night (luckily I'm flying home) it will probably be Wednesday or Thursday before I post my entry.

39 hours - there has to be traffic, accidents and/or construction somewhere between Utah and New York

Why are you driving to NY?! Good way to see the country and get some states visited under your belt?

Hope you have a fun and safe trip, and glad to hear you are flying back!

My guess is 44.5 hours. Hope I'm wrong!

Call me next time you need a chocolate fix....I'll go!

New York! Have fun. Why are you going there? If you need a stop in KY, pick up your iPhone and give me a ring! Since you are getting old, I will even let you sleep on a bed and not on the floor or couch. I'm nice like that!

I am predicting 38.

Drive safe, have fun!
