It’s that time of year again for a spontaneous road trip. We were on the road from Saturday, September 16, 2017, until September 30th, 2017 creating this Travel Log memorializing our adventure.
Our flight was delayed, but we made it here safe late Friday night. Getting some rest then heading out on the road!
