On the Road!

Day 1: Palo Alto to St. George, Utah
664.7 miles
4 states: CA, NV, AZ, UT

View all of today's pictures!

One full crate, one overloaded car, and two sad people headed out of Palo Alto this morning at 11am. Still full from our yummy pizza goodbye party last night, Seth and I said our goodbyes to our fantastic neighbors and friends (including their dogs) and hit the road (of course, after a good hour of running errands in Palo Alto).

We went down California's Central Valley, over the foothills, across the Mojave, through Vegas, across the pitch-black northwest corner of Arizona and into southwestern Utah. Tonight we are in a special town, St. George, UT; our beloved Spencer grew up here!

Along the way, we got some local snacks:

Saw a bit of green amidst a lot of desert:

Saw a plethora of sheep and windmills (at the same time):

And passed 60K on the Jetta:

Now we sleep! Tomorrow: Bryce Canyon.


p.s. I hope that you enjoyed my first blog entry ever.
