Farewell Utah!
I have never actually driven long distance, I have always been the passenger. So When Ryan told me I would be driving 9 hours to our new home I was a bit nervous I'm not going to lie. The longest I have ever driven is maybe 2 hours?
We had to drive separately so we could have both cars. The drive wasn't too bad but it was hecka boring! We took I-80 and there is nothing to look at other than lots of land and finally some cows a long the way. I kept myself entertained with some good 'ol M.J, 80's remix of The Police, Cindy Lauper, an awesome road trip mix I made if I say so myself. Playing 'I Spy' and other road trip games didn't work very well and I won each singing and dancing competition. yes dancing. I do not recommend driving for an extended period of time your first trip if you can help it.
^Some where in Wyoming And finally some life to see after 7 hours!
Ryan's car doesn't have the luxuries mine does: working speakers & cruise control. So to keep himself entertained he pulled out the headphones singing as loud as he could. Did I mention driving in his car there is no such thing as a quiet ride? In his tin can you can hear everything while driving on the roads.
9 hours later we have made it!!!!!! I was so excited to get out of the car I could have kissed the ground. The Welcome sign I soon found out was a bit deceiving... see next post.

ReplyDeleteI'lltry this again and see if I can make a comment, as I tried before but it did not work. You know me, if it doesn't have a button that says on and off I don't know what to do. I still can't believe you have been gone a week and married for 2 1/2 weeks. Love the pictures. Mom
