Road Trip
We got home from our 3000 mile road trip yesterday. It was a long time driving but really, being stuck in the car with my all time favorite people is one of my all time favorite things to do. On our trip I took a ton of photos. I took photos of things on the side of the road, mountains, volcanos, trees, signs, people. It was really fun. We stopped a few times and took photos of things we saw on the side of the road but mostly I had to snap my photos through the bug smeared windshield. It was a blast!
Here are a few shots from the trip.
We pulled over outside of Palmdale, CA for an emergency pee break. This Scoop - Thank Bob The Builder for the name - was on the side of the road and we let Garland and Ulysses climb all over it. They had a blast. Gar cried for about 15 minutes after we forced them back into the car to resume our cross country trek.

Magnus in his car seat. He gets pretty tired of his seat but he’s a trooper. If his brothers are sitting next to him he has much more fun.

Ben, Ulysses and Garland standing outside of the closed down post office and general store in Kelso, California. This is one of the two remaining buildings in that little dead town. Quite a bit worse than Radiator Springs.
Here is a little montage of inanimate objects we saw. This is Mt. Shasta through my bug smeared windshield, a few Joshua trees, a tree in the Middle of Nowhere in California heavily laden with shoes, and a bit of Route 66 nostalgic glory.
