After a lovely farewell lunch with Jen and the Hanaks, we took off. Eastward USA, tally ho! Our plan was to hit Reno (NV) before dark, putting us over the Bay Bridge right smack dab in the middle of rush hour. Nothing like some bay area traffic to send us off, right? And nothing like the hairpin turns of the Sierra Nevada mountain range to break Jamie into the world of trucking. :)
First night: Reno
Our motto was, "What do you expect for $29??"
Getting into Utah and its salty waters.
This is more typical of my personal view.
Large, but handy mirror.
Second night: Salt Lake City

Second night: Salt Lake City
Our good friends in SLC agreed to let the three of us crash in their makeshift guest room (aka where the living room used to be) while they were in the first few days of a major kitchen remodel. Josh and Maria, I've posted about them before here and here, have a terrific food blog and have been dying for more counter space to work on their creations. Our timing couldn't have been more inconvenient, but we were very grateful for the visit and the cozy accommodations. Can't wait for them to come up to NH!
Third night: Cheyenne, Wyoming
More to come...not even halfway across the country yet.
