Home!
June 28, 2008
We arrive at home, a bit road weary, but happy about the trip.
We noticed the air was a lot browner coming home than when we left three weeks ago.
For those keeping score, the trip was 5481 miles. Ended up with 32.4 miles per gallon and just over $700 for gas along the way. Meals cost us well over $1000, so we spent more fueling us than the car.
In case you’ve been wondering how I’m able to get both Sandy and I in some of the photos, my camera has a timer function so I have about 15 seconds from the time I push the shutter until it takes the picture. I mentioned being road weary, here is the photo I took trying to set up the one above. Sandy thinks this shot is a better visual of how we are after 20 days on the road.
A good caption would be – Why isn’t this thing working?
We drove probably the last 30 miles today with the top down, just couldn’t see finishing the trip any other way.
Our dog Iggy was excited to see us, but then he’s excited to see us when we get home from the grocery store. It will be nice to sleep in our own bed.
