On the road again... again

Week One.
This first post speaks for the entire summer, so it deserves more than 1 photo...


This has been a summer of transitions and car rides. I have moved from one place to another to another and back again. There were good times with friends, quiet times alone, beautiful places, and some very boring open roads. This is how it went:
Kirksville (school), Schaumburg (home), Kirksville, Branson (kamp), Kirksville, Schaumburg (flew to San Francisco), Kirksville, Kansas City, Colorado Springs, Grand Canyon, Rock Springs TX, Branson, Kirksville, Schaumburg, Kirksville, Branson, Kirksville, Schaumburg, Milwaukee, St Louis, Schaumburg, And it isn't quite done yet. 


On Saturday I will be leaving from Schaumburg to drive to Manchester, Maryland... 
for a total of about 8,561 miles in the car. Which is about 150 hours (9000 minutes/6 days 6 hours).


I didn't realize exactly how far that was until I looked into it.
Literally across the country (Maine to California) 2 and a half times.
That is from Chicago to Alaska and back... twice!
Chicago to Paris and back if you could drive it.


... all that and I only broke down once (in Branson) and only got 1 ticket (in kirksville. for going the wrong way down a one way road. oops my bad).


The real photo of the week. me. in the car. are you surprised?
