Our roadtrip, in summary:
5 days. 1,537 miles. 27 hours in the car. 13 stops for food & gas. A LOT of Adele on the iPod.
I am equally happy and disappointed to report that aside from sitting in the passenger seat, I did not turn on my camera once during the entire trip. Instead, I spent five lovely days exploring new cities, walking hand in hand with Brett, and eating enough junk food to justify moving my new years resolution up to October 1st. I am also happy to report that my car survived, as did our marriage. Our key to success = frequent bathroom stops & adequate servings of frozen yogurt per every three hours spent in the car.
The only photos I have are from the open road, and of course, the ones I snapped via Instagram. I also took a couple short videos (fancy!) so if I am able to splice them together into something cool, I will share that later this week. Don’t get your hopes up.
It’s good to be home!
{ Sidenote: if you’re looking for a place to stay in Bend, OR, we highly recommend the Seventh Mountain Resort and if you’re looking for a place to stay in Portland, we absolutely loved Hotel Lucia. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Seattle, our friends Dave and Kristin have a really nice house. Happy travels! }

Aw I love it! I just cannot wait another eight months to leave for our trip! It’s going to be fantastic! I actually really like the idea of just snapping the photos from the car and then enjoying the moments out of it camera-free. Those mountains are so gorgeous! They don’t look real!
