some friends of mine are on a road trip this summer, going from Sebastopol across the county and then back.  i’ve never been much for road trips, but i think seeing the greater US sites would be fun.

as much travel as i’ve done, i haven’t seen a lot of the US.  places like Mount Rushmore, the Grand Canyon and Yellowstone are just places on a map, not pictures in any of my photo albums.  it’s kind of sad really.  there are so many beautiful places to visit, yet i always seem to pick places quite a bit further away.

maybe this summer i can take a long weekend go somewhere i haven’t seen before, but the question is what will it be? hmmm. if i had thought about it sooner i could have tacked something onto my Bonneville trip, there are some pretty spectacular parks in Utah.
