From The Open Road
Our road trip was more than we had hoped it would be. We both thought that it would take much longer to see all that we were able to pack into 91 days of life on the road. We stand amazed at the great memories that we have from such a rewarding time. I had concerns about our sanity after three months...

Flashback: Route 66
Leg 1: Route 66 We traveled for a few days at the beginning around Indiana, Michigan and Illinois. We got a sense for how much stuff we had packed, what it was going to be like living out of and sleeping inside of our ‘98 Subaru Outback. We then headed out along the remnant stretches of Route 66...
