I haven't written a post for a long time! I didn't even read a post for a long time!! We went on a long road trip.
We went to St. George, then to Provo (and saw Alex), then to Idaho Falls for a few days. Then to Boise, then to Vancouver, WA, then to Bellingham, WA, then to Vancouver, BC, then took the ferry to Victoria, then took the ferry to St. Angeles, WA and stayed in Seaside, WA, then to Medford, Oregon, then to Jackson, CA (to see Aunt Brownie), then to Santa Cruz, CA (to see Sam & Jenn and our grandkids). THEN HOME!
About 4 hours after we left Santa Cruz, we called Chad to see if he and Meagen and Emily were going home from their week at the beach in Oxnard, CA. Yep, they were already on the road. We calculated and figured we would both be on the I-10 at about the same time. So we met near Indio at the "In & Out Burger" for lunch. We got there about 8 minutes after they did.
It was really a great trip. When we got to BC, was when I started to feel ready to be home but of course we had a long way to go before we would get home!! And there wasn't any short cuts at that point. But there were the grandkids to look forward to seeing and that helped!! We even got to see little Emily, too!
We put about 4400 miles on our car and were gone just over 2 weeks. We really enjoyed ourselves and saw lots of beautiful places I'd never been to before (Washington, Oregon and British Columbia).
It was perfect meeting you at In and Out!!! We missed you guys!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had such fun trip! That picture is crazy with Jim and the window!!

Glad you had a good trip. Ed and I were gone by ourselves for a significant period of time as well. That's FUN! We've decided we're going to do that at least once a year! Yeah!!!! I DID miss my grandkids, though.
