Yup! I'll be at Barnes & Noble at 9. That gives us 24 hours to hit Barstow by 9. I'm hoping that's enough time for us to make it. Google says 20 hours... do we trust it? I think we need about 6 gas stops - hopefully that'll take care of food/pee breaks too, so it seems like 4 more hours would be sufficient Your thoughts?

Yeah, Google says 19.X for me, so I rounded

I've got an iPod connection and a 6-disk CD. I'm sure your keep awake music is better than mine

dondo driving with Linda?
if so, take turns driving so the other can nap
driving 20 hours without sleep is going to be challenging.
