We made it – Road Trip 2008

July 10, 2008 – 5:08 pm

We made it home last Thursday. Getting home is always so anti-climatic. We were on the road for 3 1/2 weeks – a pretty short time to cover the 5800+ miles that we covered, and a long time to be gone from home. Luckily, we had purchased a Toyota Prius in March, and we were able to make this trip with a relatively small carbon footprint. We got close to 50 m.p.g. for the entire trip. Both Barbara and I took umpteen million photos. I’ll be putting them up here and on my flickr page as well. Check out flickr; I’ve got a lot of photos posted there, with more to come.

This photo was taken on the roadside in Idaho on rte. 26, near Craters of the Moon National Monument..

It was a big surprise to come up this huge cone at Craters of the Moon Monument and find this wind swept tree.
