Beginning this Saturday, we are driving (literally) coast to coast- from Seattle to Boston- with several stops in between. The trip will take a total of 2 weeks. Four days to get to Louisville, 7 days there (as we probably won't be back until Christmas), a couple days in Virginia Beach to visit Chuck's sister and her family, and then on to Boston by Labor Day Weekend. We've decided to take our car with us to Boston this year since our apartment has a parking garage and our parking spot is included in the rent. We'll only use it though for weekend adventures and some trips to Target. :)
Here's a little picture of the route we plan to take to get back to Boston.

Our first night, we'll spend in Bozeman, MT with a friend from Louisville, Sara, who lives there. Our second night we'll spend in a hotel near Mt. Rushmore. Our third night we'll spend in Rochester, MN with my best friend Lauren. Then we'll be in Louisville for several days before we head to VA Beach and Boston. We plan to follow the route above, veering off the path to drive through the Badlands and maybe make some other stops along the way as we see signs that interest us.
We're going to be in the car A LOT. Good thing we like each other a lot.
We might be a little crazy to drive this much but we're excited to see parts of the country we've never seen before and see some friends and family along the way! I can't wait to share our stories and pictures on the blog.
Until then, I'll leave you with a video (and song) from my favorite movie about a cross country road trip.
Chris & I did something like this last summer - it's possible! It will be wonderful and exhausting but totally worth it.
