Let's see...Todd and I were unable to get a trip together for this upcoming week- we were dying to get to a warm beach somewhere- one stipulation: it couldn't cost over $400 per person. We couldn't find a spot, so we're heading to the in-laws to beautiful Orange County New York.
If we could go anywhere though- and I mean anywhere, I'd really love to drive across the country- take three or four weeks off and hit the road. Sure, I'm five months pregnant, but what a great story to tell later on. I'd leave tomorrow if it were possible. We test the boundaries of our marriage, the strength of the fabric in my yoga pants and the capabilities of whatever vehicle we take (most likely, it would be Todd's...)
I've never taken route 6 across the top of PA, I've never been to Texas, I've never been on route 66. I'd like to drive down the Pacific Coast Highway during the day (it was dark when I drove from LA to San Fran) and maybe even end up in Washington. On the way back with a cooler full of pb&j and tired children I'd like to hit up the Grand Canyon and Mount Rushmore- and probably swing down to Graceland (because we don't want to blow our load on the way out.)
My parents talked about taking us on a two week vacation one year- flying into LA and driving up to San Fran- I was so excited. You can imagine my disappointment when we spent another week in Sea Isle.
I know that we would run in to road blocks and things would get VERY uncomfortable- especially if we planned this trip when we had an infant or toddler...in fact, I'm sure there would be times on the trip when I would be down right miserable...but again- the story would be priceless.
Todd, for Christmas, will you promise me that we will take our family in a car across the country one year?
Thanks.
I hope I did this right.
