Road Trip'n

Normally, I dread long tedious drives, but in this case, my photographic senses were going crazy on this beautiful trip...through 5 states no less. It took driving through 24 hours of varied weather, from snow blizzards, to rain, to just wind, clouds and the open road, to pull myself from the monotony of 80 degrees and sun. I have decided that I am now ready for all the "I told you so's" because it is just great to be home. Many people had said that we would be back within the year, which was almost true. At least we have come back with a new appreciation for the great northwest. I wouldn't trade our adventure and experience for the world though. I can now say that I've seen fire and I've seen rain, I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end. I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend, but I always thought I'd see you again. Also, thanks for the warm welcome?
