At the end of this day we will have traveled 3858 miles. There has been no heavy construction or traffic jams. We are grateful for a safe and wonderful trip. We purchased new tires before we left and it made a huge difference in mountain driving. Our gas mileage is 26 miles to the gallon and gas has averaged $3.60 - much cheaper than we planned. The biggest challange is finding pet friendly hotels. There is a pet friendly hotel website and I think I will go back and blog later all the good ones. The greatest asset on this trip is our GPS. It tells us mph, and estimated time of arrival in addition to a real-time map and voice directions. The best $100 Christmas gift I ever gave Terry. We also love our Trip Tik and books from AAA. It hi-lights historic places, lists and rates hotels and restaurants, and notes construction. Loving this trip with Terry and I enjoyed meeting some potential new Boston Reed partners.
