RE: What is the wildest thing you have ever done?

in #funny7 years ago

I love photographing and adventures in general. My senior year of college a friend and I had planned a drive from NYC where we were living at the time to Alabama to do some photographing. It's really only a 16 hour drive or so but due to traffic and some other unforeseen things the drive took almost 24 hours. It was unseasonably cold and we had only stopped for more than just gas and snacks once in the drive. We tried to take a nap at a rest stop and with temperatures hovering around 0 degrees C well it just wasn't possible we almost froze.

We get down there and I decide to go out and get a little drunk (despite at this point having been awake for well over a day) and proceed to have a pretty wild party night but that's not where it got crazy. The weather had predicted snow for Alabama which is not that common and has the tendency to shut down highways and make travel difficult and dangerous. So my friend and I? We headed back up north that next day..... after barely sleeping haha. Total time in Alabama: a day or so? Compared with a 38 hour drive and no sleep! Good thing we got a few good photographs and some good memories!
