For us, Charleston was only a quick stop; however, we got to experience the beautiful southern charm of the city and some absolutely delicious soul food. Days 120 – 121 November 30 – December 1, 2014 Mileage 15170 – 15455 Jon and I arrived in Charleston after sunset on Sunday evening. Using Trip Adviser and Yelp,…
Even though we drove to the most southern point of Florida, Key West felt more like a weekend getaway than part of our extended road trip. Day 112 – 114 November 22 – November 24, 2014 Miles 14421 – 14591 Key West was approximately three hours away from Miami. We made the drive only stopping…
In southern Florida, we finally had a break in the weather. Hot and humid temperatures allowed us to experience the tropics and our friends took us out for some great dining. Day 111 – 112 November 21 – November 22, 2014 Miles 14075 – 14421 For the first time since leaving Illinois, the roads had…
Hi, Herrwego Nation! This blog entry is brought to you by guestblogger and new Gainesville resident, Marisa Pacella. Alexis and Jon went pretty much straight from Texas to Gainesville, FL as they’ve done New Orleans before and an extra day together was way more appealing than Alabama or Mississippi. Day 109 – 111 November 19…
The unique urban feel and the energy of Sixth Street made Austin one of my favorite cities of the trip. It also helped that two of our amazing friends took the time to visit us while in Austin. Day 104 – 106 November 14 – November 16, 2014 Miles 12802 – 12861 Our arrival into…
Never having been to Texas I didn’t know what the cities would be like. Even through the weather was unusually cold and damp, San Antonio turned out to be delightful. Day 103 – 104 November 13 – November 14, 2014 Miles 12482 – 12802 There are not too many National Parks between New Mexico and…
Even though both of us have been to Denver many times, it was still great to catch up with some friends and see some places we haven’t been to yet, especially before a huge cold front was to arrive! Days 96 – 99 November 6 – November 9, 2014 Miles 11160 – 11454 In Denver we…
Our first destination in Colorado was Ouray, which was recommended to us by a friend in Denver who we would be seeing later in the week. Ouray bills itself as ‘The Switzerland of America‘. What we found in Ouray is a quaint mountain town. The buildings on main street retain a lot of historic charm…
San Digeo was our last stop on the West Coast which made it a little bittersweet. Luckily we had a great time with friends who went out of their way to show us the city. Days 76 – 79 October 17 – October 20, 2014 Miles 8597 – 8709 We arrived in San Diego Friday…
Los Angeles was the city to date that we’ve spent the most time in. Our hosts were amazing, but when you are in a city as big as LA its hard to see and do everything. Day 69 – 73 October 10 – October 14, 2014 Miles 8256 – 8286 After a long…
