    1:18:19 You were right. 185 miles is 435 miles.
    I'm figuring out the miles from day 2.
    1:36:28 16 miles (451 miles total).
    1:37:29 17 miles (452 miles total).
    1:39:42 29 miles (476 miles total).
    1:46:35 149 miles (584 miles total).
    1:47:04 202 miles (637 miles total).
    1:49:37 253 miles (688 miles total).
    1:51:34 277 miles (712 miles total).
    2:00:02 Can't say I know the total miles. I estimate 720-730 miles.

    I directed an episode of home movies (1998-2006, animated TV show) where Brendon and his mom, Paula Small, And my own characters, Jack and Bobby and Bobby's wife/Jack's Mom Joanne head to Chicago, Illinois for the weekend to see Jack's relatives, and also to see Jack's out-of-town friends (who he's known for a long time, too), siskel and Ebert in Chicago, Illinois. The episode of home movies also features the voices of Courteney Cox (TV'S friends), Charlie sheen and Jon cryer (TV'S two and a half men), and Peter Boyle (TV'S everybody loves Raymond). The episode is now kinda similar to this road trip to St. Louis video.

      And along the way, they stop at McChicken's (parody of McDonald's) x2 for lunch (Day 1 and Day 2), and Donald von cheeseintions, because they love pizza, for dinner when they spend the night at their motel in Morehead, KY.

    • @justusschrom6071
      @justusschrom6071 2 года назад

      They also do stop for drinks and gas at a gas station every time Jack's father, Bobby's Winnebago's gas tank gets low.

    This is a continuation from my last comment I left a minute ago. In terms of elevators that are at my university, we mostly have older, as well as some modded Otis elevators, as well as some ThyssenKrupp elevators in our brand new student center. The Otis in my residence hall runs ok, although the contractor for it, ThyssenKrupp has had to come repair it a lot. It definitely is showing its age. The Kruppy ones are nice though. Maybe I'll make some videos sometime.

I've also been on the West Virginia Turnpike part of Interstate 77 which includes Interstate 64.
