The journey west has begun! We left on Monday... a bit later than we expected (like 6 hours later). We packed the uhaul so we wouldn't kill my car along the way. That took forever. We headed north through Kentucky and headed west toward Colorado Springs, CO. I got to add 5 new states to my "Places I've been" list: Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, and Kansas. Kentucky we got rain, nothing crazy. Indiana was the real fun. It was the shortest mileage-wise, but so long time-wise. We got a flat tire right inside the Indiana border. We had to wait about an hour before we got it changed. Then, our battery died and the tire guy didn't have jumper cables in his truck. He came back another half hour or so later and got us going again... then we almost ran out of gas. Talk about fun! It really was the best situation considering the circumstances. Then we were off again.
We landed in Colorado Springs yesterday evening and Rob got to see his family. We will be leaving tomorrow and heading south through New Mexico to see more of his family in Sante Fe and Gallup.
After that: Flagstaff, Phoenix, Vegas, Yosemite the SAN FRANCISCO!! Can't wait, and I'll keep you posted :)
