Just finished my first turn driving, switched just before Columbus, Ohio.
Observations thus far:
1. We packed well. I left Philadelphia 3 days ago and still haven't thought of anything I forgot. I didn't forget to tell Boyf to bring his video camera (why buy one if your not going to us it for stuff like this?) but my bad. Oh well. Our phones take crappy video if need be.
2. Driving in general is going well- we should be in St. Louis around 7pm- just in time for dinner.
3. I did somehow get a scuff on the front bumper of my car. Ouch. No big though, I have someones white paint as a souvenir. I can't blame anyone but myself though, because we noticed before he started driving.
4. He took some photos with my camera before he started driving. I'll have to post them from a computer some time.
5. Other news bulletins: we added up some of our costs so far:
Refilling ez-pass (toll money) $35
100 proof stoli $20
Yellowstone camping fee $22
Walmart (campstove, lantern, propane, bug spray...) $41
Hotel in Vegas $95
Kmart (air mattress, pump) $37
Grand canyon camping fee $18
Food (target and random grocery store stuff on sale for snacks and camping) approx $28
Target (cooler, ice packs) $20
More target (more food, camping cookware, toiletries) $68
Gas (used the fuel perks card, $.60 off per gallon) $20
Not bad! Running total is just under $400, but all lodging and stuff that we needed to camp (all we had to start with is a tent, camp chairs and sleeping bags; all other camping essentials were purchased in the last month.)
Gas ain't bad either- we'll fill up again in another hour or so:)
I apologize to anyone who had to see the horrific photo of me that was here.
