Subject: About Saturday’s road trip plan
---
Hey Dan,

Just wanted to follow up about Saturday, since a couple of things shifted after I checked the forecast again.

The route we talked about earlier is still fine, but there’s a decent chance of heavy traffic near the coast in the afternoon. Because of that, I’m thinking we should leave a bit earlier than planned, even if it means cutting breakfast short. I’d rather be moving than stuck halfway with nowhere decent to stop.

Also, the place I mentioned for lunch turns out to be cash-only, which I somehow missed last time. It’s not a big deal, but it might save us some hassle if we’re prepared instead of scrambling around later. Worst case, we can always change plans if the line looks unreasonable.

Let me know what you think. I’m flexible, but I figured it was better to flag this now than deal with it on the road.

Talk soon,
Joe
