I would first have to through Chicago (fine), then Washington DC (oh), then down to Atlanta.
If I had nothing to do, it'd probably be pretty fun. Wasn't there a "Hackers on a Train" conference once?

Still tweaking things (of course) but if you have uvx installed, you can give it a shot with something like:
uvx --from git+https://github.com/dacort/runbox-cloud cloud-run run --instance-type t3.micro ./test-it.sh
AWS supported by default, added DigitalOcean today.
