Tour Thanks Bethany for the great ride along with you across our great nation. Thanks to Helen we learned of your website and followed along closely. Have a good year. Joan and Ron
I can't believe I missed this entry, I'm just now reading it. The picture of the Elk is quite good - it looked so content in the picture, but apparently looks are decieiving. And Beth I would have been running my hardest too. Glad you guys had fun, you got some really great pictures. Muah!
Moose! That is so cool that you saw a moose! The views here are absolutely breathtaking - very country, but that's what I love. I'm so glad you enjoyed your time there. It sounds like your whole vacation was a fantasic experience. We need to hang out soon Beth now that you're home...miss you!
Thrill of the chase I can't believe you were chased by Elk! And I really can't believe that was your favorite, Jim! Must be the adrenaline rush. I'm with Bethany on this -- I prefer calm, docile animals. Can't wait to hear more. I'm back in Mass for a while. Hope to see you before I head back to Cali :)
Love you two, Jess (and Dave too)
TEXAS Hey, did you get that Mexican Food...both Austin and San Antonio have some of the best, or they did 30 years ago!! Thanks for the call...give me a buzz when you get back. It sounds like ya'll are having a wonderful time!! Love, Marcia
Hi guys!! Looks like you are having a great time!! The pictures are really good and we have forwarded the site on to Steph to watch your trip. She was a bit sick recently so hopefully this will keep her entertained. I'm not sure if you got my other message so I decided to send another one. We all miss you both-...Trish, the kids, dad and I!!! We will see you in a few weeks, Love Michelle
Missed you in Cali Hi Beth and Jim...
Your blog is a wonderful way to releave the everyday tension! I remember when I drove down the coast a few years back. I remember the sights as you have described.
I am actually in San Diego with a friend for a family funeral...sorry I missed ya in Cali.
Keep up the fantastic blogging! I will be looking for more!

San Fran We have loved all your comments and photos. The food in San Francisco sounds delicious. That was the first place Pepe came back to after his tour of duty in Korea. Give Aunt Jeanette an extra kiss and hug for us.
Enjoy!
Love, Meme, Pepe, and Uncle Jay
Miss you! We loved having you two as guests! It was nice to show you where we've been calling home for a few years. Enjoy the rest of your trip! See you in August when we're back in MA :)
Strong work in the editorial department Beth!! For real! Thanks for all the details!!! Now that you are in Cali does this mean you made the half way mark?
When James and I went to California last year one of my favorite days was when we drove and explored the Pacific Coast Highway. You are so right how beautiful it is. Ocean to one side, mountains to the other. It's like being in two different worlds depending on where you look. So nice!
Beautiful! That is one place that I know I want to go in my lifetime. So absolutely beautiful! And thank God Jim you're okay...make sure you stay hydrated now!
Don't worry...its raining in Mass Hi Beth and Jim,
By the time I read this blog, we have been having really bad thunder and lightening with rain like you would't believe. So either you sent the rain...or someone hates us!
I love your blog. I laughed at how you didn't sugar coat anything. What a nightmare in the Pigeon Forge place. Reminds me of Onset...all the wannabe gangstahs!
Hope all is well...can't wait to talk to you when you return. Get some rest!
Jenn
Bethany It sounds like you and Jim are having the time of your life.
Iam so glad. I miss you so much and cann't wait for you to come home. Well I will hopfully talk to you soon. Keep up the good work. The blog is great. I love and miss you MOM
Christine- I think it was one! i took a second pic seconds later to make sure, and the light wasn't there. PS. I looked through the Gettysburg pics, none there... Miss you all!
I went hiking in the rain in australia. You both are definately troopers! At least no wildlife attacked your tent :) This blog makes me laugh so hard. Miss you.
no rain in cali It's great to have the chance to read about your adventures on your way across this big country. You'll be pleased to learn that it rarely rains in Cali. I can't even remember the last time we saw rain here.
Can't wait to see you! Jess and Dave
We're going on a road trip across the US for 7 weeks! Leaving July 5! YAY! I'm so excited! We are headed down through PA to Tennessee, to Texas, Arizona, up through Cali, east to Yellowstone Park, a stop in Nebraska, Chicago, Niagara Falls, then home!
