and, I'm off!

So much has happened these last few months! Tomorrow early morning, I am off to Iowa to join D and his fam, go to a wedding, and then head out west in a car I can't currently drive (need to be taught stick...again). Maybe this time the instructions will...stick? Sorry.

Anyway, yeah. Road trip for 8 weeks. 8 weeks. What? In my geekdom, D and I have been working off a spreadsheet. I am in love with Google Docs. Seriously.














So, many national parks, breweries, lots of backpacking and camping, cool cities where I've yet to go, large balls of twine, wine, bikes, horses, mountains, and bears. I have no idea what I'm in for.

I'll be attempting to keep up the blog with posts and photos from our travels, so stay tuned.
