Genie,

I'm driving both ways and am glad to offer a ride both ways. The return trip on Monday would pose no problems. Friday, however, I am leaving early afternoon from work, which is in Roxboro. Roxboro is up near the VA/NC border and about 45-60 minutes west of I-85, too far out of the way for me to pick you up in Raleigh or at RDU. Roxboro is also 45-50 minutes north-northeast of where I live.   If you would like to spend the night with me on Thursday, ride to Roxboro with me, and take the car to putz around until noon on Friday, you would be more than welcome to do so. I should tell you that Roxboro is a poor, rural milltown and there are not a ton of ways to amuse yourself for 4 hours.

They do have a library!

The return trip would not be a problem, since I will be headed for home and not to Roxboro.
