As always

Dave Barry

“In the old pre-technology days, it would have been almost impossible to replicate Facebook or Twitter. The closest you could get would be to mail dozens of postcards a day to everybody you know, each with a brief message about yourself like: "Finally got that haircut I've been putting off." Or: "Just had a caramel frappuccino. Yum!" The people receiving these postcards would have naturally assumed you were a moron with a narcissism disorder. But today, thanks to Facebook and Twitter, you are seen as a person engaging in 'social networking'.”

Welcome, Camille Sofia Murphy.

Road trip map!

Here's a map of our whole trip, made in Google "My Maps" using Google Timeline info. 

It's not quite complete, because Google would only let me insert 10 days' worth of maps.  I had to leave out July 30th, when we went to Liz and Rob's, and August 3rd, when Dad and I hiked with my siblings at Naches Peak.  But there are screenshots of those two days below the main map.  On the big map, you should be able to zoom in to see details and click on the arrows to see stops.  Nice to have a record of the whole trip! 

Las Vegas to Plymouth Reservoir

 

The plane flew just north of the Grand Canyon, and we were on the south side, so we had a spectacular view.  I should have taken pictures!
