Road Trip-Day One

Road Trip-Day One

We left Idaho at 9 am Mountain Time and started on our way towards Seattle, Washington.  Garth was able to get a great deal on a rental van from Enterprise.  It will be nice for the trip and it has plenty of room.

What a beautiful ride it has been so far.  The mountains are fantastic!  Right now we are about an hour from Seattle and there are big heaps of snow on the sides of the roads, and up on the tops of the mountains.  The girls would love to jump out and touch some of that snow.  Emma, Sophie and Wyatt haven’t had a winter in four years.

Our trip will be from today until June 26th.  I have decided to keep track of road kill, hitch hikers, time zones, trips to Subway, gas, number of states we enter, among other things.  If you want to make any of your own predictions, feel free and then you can check it against my list at the end of the trip.

A few points of interest:  Wyatt found a potato chip the size of his fist, we saw a rattlesnake sign but no rattlesnakes, and the clouds were like pulled out cotton.  It was beyond beautiful!  The end picture is our first stop.  Nice, huh?  We are here and having a blast.
