12 parks, 18 states 4 time zones, and 8000 miles. It seems fitting that we concluded our journey by visiting the professor that inspired and encouraged our road trip from freshman year! (at Ann Arbor, Michigan)

Making our way back East

Tomorrow we'll be starting our trek back east! It's hard to believe that we've been on the road for 2 weeks. Tonight we're staying with a friend in Berkeley, CA and tomorrow we'll drive out to Yosemite for two days! California has been a blast (despite the expensive gas prices) and I'm excited to get to the Southwestern parks in just a few days!

Haven't posted much recently, I've been trying to conserve my data usage! Five parks down, seven more to go! We're grabbing breakfast at a great vegan place in Portland before we depart for Crater Lake and California!

I ❤ bacteria (at Yellowstone National Park)

We spent yesterday and this morning in Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado! Our campground had a beautiful view of Long's Peak and we went on a lovely hike early this morning (to beat the crowds). We are spending the night in Lander, WY and will be leaving bright and early for Grand Teton National Park!
