The End of the Road

On September 17th we parked the trailer for the last time on our trip.  What an adventure!  By the numbers:
  • 13,010.6 miles
  • 310 hours 46 minutes of driving
  • 1,318.3 gallons of gas
  • 81 days
  • 30 stops
  • 20 states
  • 15 sets of family members seen
  • 7 sets of friends visited
  • 19 national & state parks and monuments 
  • 1 Presidential Library
  • 26 hiking trails
  • 88.8 miles of hiking
To quote Dickens, it was definitely the best of times and the worst of times.  Trips like these tend to bring out the very best and worst in each of us.  But through it all, we learned to appreciate each other's strengths and forgive weaknesses.  We are extremely grateful for our amazing families and all of the incredible friends who hosted us.  We treasured each moment we were able to spend with you.  If you are ever in Wyoming, stop by for a spell.  We definitely owe ya!
