Default Going to Purvis

So I'm driving to Oklahoma from Virginia for the next phase of my military training and had a thought today.

Given that:
1. I'm basically passing to the north of Lacey's hometown
2. I took no leave days for myself during the holidays (Christmas and New Years)
3. I love road tripping
4. I bought a shiny new 8 Megapixel camera

Should I at the conclusion of my training take a few leave days and go the long way back to Virginia stopping in Purvis, MS and take pictures of Lacey's hometown?

Pros:
1. I would get to see Lacey's hometown
2. YOU might also get to see the pictures provided you IM me for them (and you have high speed internet)
3. I get to take some "me time" after 6 or so weeks of playing army in what I can only imagine will be utter coldness to the extreme (that's the technical term, by the way).
4. It would be fun visiting a place I've never been to before.

Cons:
1. This might make me come off as a little weird or stalkish
2. Gas expense will be higher-- though not really a huge concern for me
3. Lodging and Food expenses-- again, not really a huge concern...

I know there are plenty of "what ifs" to put in the "con" category, but I'm only looking at what IS right now. If you think of any other Pros or Cons, please post them along with your recommendation. I'm not sure if I want to myself which is why I'm presenting my fellow Lacey fans this question.
