12 Aug. The final leg of our Road Trip, NJ to home in Framingham MA was uneventful except for an odd downpour on the Mass Pike. We left Piscataway bidding a fond farewell to our friends Don, Betty and family and set off for home. Our journey has taken us as far north as Edmonton, Alberta, as far northwest as Jasper, British Columbia, and as far southwest as Las Vegas and Arizona. In all we have visited 25 States and 3 Canadian Provinces covering a total of 10,091 miles in 42 days. It has been a journey of a lifetime, but there is so much more to see.....
