The drive from New Mexico to North Carolina involves direction like:
Merge onto I-40. Continue to 1730 miles.
It’s not an especially fun drive unless you have just graduated from college and think that Albuquerque is the best place on earth and that you’ll finally live in a cool place with fun things to do. Or, if you are leaving Albuquerque to drive to Virginia six years later because you cannot wait to get away from that dusty, brown city and you can’t imagine why anyone would ever want to live there.
My mom is making that drive as we speak. It’s about 1757 miles. On Interstate 40. The first night, she called and said that they’d made it as far as Santa Rosa, NM. I checked Google Maps and that’s a solid 143 miles.
She should be here in about 11 days.

I wouldn’t wait by the door if I were you.

40 might be almost as dull as 15 through Pennsylvania.
