I had a chance to go through some of the (many) pictures from South Dakota and Wyoming, and I posted a bunch on the roadtrip page.
What's been on my mind lately? Read on...
I’ve arrived in Seattle. Hard to believe I’d been on the road for a full month, but it’s true. I updated the map, but haven’t had a chance to post any more pictures. Soon.
Some interesting (?) statistics about my road trip:
- Maximum speed: a wimpy 90 mph, but not bad for a hybrid
- Minimum speed: < 1 mph, waiting for bison to cross the road in Yellowstone
- Speeding tickets: 0
- Incidents requiring use of AAA Plus membership: 0
- Miles traveled: 5000, approximately
- Tanks of gas: 9
- Photographs taken: 2000, approximately
- Consecutive nights spent in a tent: 8
- Visits to the ER: 1
Not bad…
This week, I joined the 700 club. No, not the Pat Robertson organization… my hybrid went over 700 miles on a single tank of gas. Amazing.
I’m a day away from Seattle, and really looking forward to being in the same place for more than a day or two.
I’m posting from the lovely Hard Drive Cafe in Jackson, WY – they’re nice folks, have good coffee and have free wireless. What more could you want?
I’m on my way Boise, which is my last stop before Seattle – hard to believe I’ve been on the road for almost a month. So far, I’ve been to:
