Home Again + Statistics

We came home today to a busy city.  Hello, Atlanta!  Hello, traffic!


We ate lunch at Ponce City Market and bought gifts for our house sitter, Ben.


The Atlanta Beltline is always a cheery sight.


We unloaded our car onto the front walk.


Smokey says, "Where have you been?"


George and Smokey greet each other.

It feels strange and luxurious to be home. So much space for us. We had a wonderful adventure.

We had never driven across the country, so this was our chance to see the land and the people who live with us in these United States.  We feel awed by the size and diversity of our country.  The crops, the trees and flowers, the lakes and rivers.  This is a country full of kind people who welcomed us to their cities and towns and homes.

Here are some numbers that describe our trip:

9000 miles
1 driver
61 days
1 Honda Civic
3 hours/average driving per day
17 states plus Georgia
8 National Park visits
14 visits with family and friends, 3 of whom were loopers
0 cancellations of reservations
17 nights in airbnb apartments

One adventure completed.
