Traveling down the highway

In just hours we'll be starting out and hopefully make it safely to our first stop in Topeka. The weather looks blistering, but it's August afterall. It's starting to rain in AZ, which is typical for this time of the year as well.

Whenever I make a LONG trip like this (which I haven't done for a few years), I always marvel at the fact that I can actually do it. The driving, the boredom, the crazy drivers. The trick is not to take too much on in one day, and stop when you feel tired. It helps not having a toddler ( a teenager, now) and no pets along for the hairy ride. And of course your guardian angel watching over you on the road below is the main thing.

Later posts from unseen stops to follow!
