Weve been busy

Ok, we are WAYYYY behind on blog posts.  I promise that we will get on top of that soon.  Quick tidbit.  We are currently in Palm Desert, and have been for a week and a half.  We have been out to Joshua Tree National Park 3 times, and love it!  We also went to the…

4000 Miles

4000 Miles

We surpassed 400 miles on our road trip.  When the clocked ticked we were on our way driving back along I-10 just outside Indio CA.  I wasn’t the best place for a picture, otherwise I would have taken one.  So at 1000 miles we were just outside of Mt Rainier National Park, at 2000 miles…

Fummins Mileage

Fummins Mileage

Alright, we have traveled quite a bit since last time I discussed Mileage.  Here is the mileage since my last post.  The first stretch we got 13.1 MPG, but this was a pretty flat stretch, towing, then we drove without the trailer up and down the coast a bit.  The next move, there were some…
