Greetings From The Open Road!.

At least the first part anyway. We are currently driving from California to Massachusetts. We are having an AMAZING time! I have so many photos to post – I just can’t wait. As a little update, we left last Wed morning and we have been going non-stop. We leave for Iceland in 10 days – crazy!

We have been camping for our entire drive, except tonight, which is our first night in a hotel and the first time I have been able to plug the computer in and get a quick post out. I was completely swamped with the X-Games assignments & two weddings before I left and unable to prepare any posts which is why we have had such a long gap. In the week before we left I only got 24 hours of sleep total! But being on the road has more than made up for all the lack of sleep. 🙂 I’ll be sure to make up for the lack of recent posts of when I get to Mass and I’ll have things lined up for Iceland in case we end up in a similar situation without WiFi and an outlet!

Really things have been just fantastic since we started the drive and we’ve winded through Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, South Dakota & we are now currently in Minnesota. We’ve hit up three different National Parks – Grand Teton, Yellowstone & Badlands. They have all been beautiful and so far the Badlands has been my favorite. In fact, I think I may have left my heart in South Dakota – it was really that spectacular.

I have many, many more photos to come and some great campground tips for camping across the United States. I am also going to post our daily budget for this section of the trip so that if any of you are considering a similar trip, you’ll have an idea of what it costs.

The photo above is from Badlands National Park in South Dakota. A truly magical place – a must see if you are in the region. I can’t wait to put up the other pictures from this amazing place but I hope you like this one in the meantime. 🙂
