9,600 Miles

9,600 miles. That's the end count, folks. We drove 9,600 miles in 7 weeks. It was a crazy summer. We ended up seeing circling the United States as well as being a canoe ride from Canada and an interstate exit from Mexico. We could see both places but weren't able to visit either. Another time. Here's the mapped out version of our trip. You can see it outlined in blue with stopping points along the way. We started in California, headed north, and then circled around, stopping at several places and seeing lots of family and friends.


We were in 23 states this summer (Garrett was actually in 24. He made it to Florida for a game of golf when we were in Alabama). I got to see 5 new states that I'd never been in, and Garrett had several new ones as well. And, we've now been in 34 states together as a married couple. Garrett has now been to all of the lower 48 states, and only has Alaska and Hawaii left to complete the list. Pretty fun!
