Be Careful What You Wish For

 Just a short time ago I had posted on Facebook saying; 

"I just realized I've been to 32 of the 50 states...I wish I could squeeze in one last trip before we move overseas to see the last 18"

.....well....

After weeks of research, thinking, praying and placing ads we've decided that the best option is for us to keep my car and leave it with my parents in Oregon while we live in Italy.

Which means I will be taking my FOURTH cross country road trip!

I'll be leaving North Carolina, headed for Oregon this coming up Wednesday. Then, I'll be flying back to North Carolina on October 22nd, with a layover in NEW YORK! Finally! (Even though it's only the airport) I get to "see"/be in New York for the first time in my life. The ONE state out of the whole country that I've wanted to see the most.

The route I'll be driving is the "southern" route, which will put 7 new states under my belt :)

I'm going to try and utilize this opportunity I have to go across the country once again but on a completely different route and hopefully see/and meet some new family members, see some new sites, and get some great pictures and videos.

The moment that you're sure that you're sure that this is "the last time" or "you'll never be able to see that place" etc....think again. It could happen. Anything is possible.

So once again for (probably) the last time in a few years, follow along as I travel back across the country!
