Reminiscing

One year ago today Cade and I left on the trip of our lives. We went on a cross country trip on our way to Philadelphia for my summer externship. We went up through Colorado Springs, through Wyoming and South Dakota, over to Minnesota and Illinois. Then we spent our weekdays in Philly and traveled the east coast on the weekends. On our way home we went through West Virginia, Kentucky, and met up with some of my family in Arkansas. Then it was time to get back to Flagstaff. Now I'm bummed out because I wish that's what I was doing right now, but instead I'm just living my day to day life, being stressed out from working at a new job, with no vacation in sight. Sigh. I felt like reminding myself of the good times so I'm taking a trip down memory lane, but I won't be offended if no else joins me, there's a lot of memories here. :)

That looks like so much fun. I would love to go on a cross country trip. Just be glad you got the opportunity to do it, that seems like a once in a lifetime thing, and most people probably don't even get it once.

I love your post, but I am a bit jealous! I hope someday I too will be able to reminisce about all those places!

i took a trip down memory lane with you. it was fun but would have been better if i had actually gone on the real trip with you.

ps - i thought you weren't allowed to take pics in the sacred grove or of the amish people?
