Tom: So, are we still on for the road trip this weekend?

Emma: Absolutely. I already booked a hotel in Nashville for Saturday night.

Tom: Nice. What time should we leave on Saturday morning?

Emma: If we leave by seven, we’ll get there around noon and avoid the worst traffic.

Tom: Good plan. I’ll fill up the car and check the tires on Friday.

Emma: I’ll pack snacks and make a playlist for the drive.

Tom: Should we stop anywhere on the way?

Emma: There’s a famous barbecue place about halfway. Let’s have lunch there.

Tom: Sounds perfect. And on Sunday, we can visit the music museum before we drive back.

Emma: Deal. I’ll set my alarm for six thirty so we’re not rushed.
