Stop in for a cup of coffee

I can only be there 1 day. Most of the day Friday, going to spend the night Friday night, head back home Saturday. I have to report to my unit Sunday as they only approved 1 day of split train.

I’m crazy, but not that crazy.

If you just look at it like you are doing a drive by, scouting it for a future trip, I suppose... But I can't see driving all that way and barely scratching the surface of what is there. I have done plenty of one day visits there and you can cover a lot of ground in a day, but if you want to catch anything in particular put a time on it and go cause the day will be over before you know it.
The day of the first time visitor is something like... Just inside the gate you will express (to yourself -or maybe out loud) "Holy F'k this place is big!". And you begin to hurry down the row so you can cover it all. But you really don't understand till you have been there a few hours and have only covered a few aisles, that you have no chance of seeing it all. And your brain scrambles and starts to re-assess what is most important to see... And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but its sinking...lol
