It was, yet again, another early morning wakeup and a day of mostly driving. On this day, however, our tour guide (that’s Doug, if you don’t know our dynamic 😉) decided to go a bit rogue and make a few unscheduled pit stops along the way from South Dakota to Wyoming! They were a greatContinue reading “Day 6 Recap”

Today is day 5. We have 19 full days left. Today we drove from Wisconsin to Minnesota to South Dakota. It was very hot in South Dakota but it cooled down at night. we drove up to Mount Rushmore. We sat there for a while waiting for the sculpture illumination to start. When it finallyContinue reading “Day 5 Driving and Mount Rushmore”

I’m super behind on my daily recaps – eek! But we’ve been having such an amazing time adventuring and it has been low on the priority list. I wanted to share on here the post I just shared on my other social media channels… We have been adventuring for 6 days and it’s been funContinue reading ““Unplugging” Update”

The first part of the day was mostly driving, playing on our electronics, and suffering jet lag from switching time zones. But once we got to Wisconsin, things started to get more fun.

I wonder if this is what time travel would feel like. ItContinue reading “Day 2 Recap”

The funny thing about today was, we mostly went to the zoo to humor my sister. None of the rest of us really wanted to go because we thought it would be boring and uneventful. We were quickly proven wrong. Only fifteen minutes in, we were already enthralled with everything about the zoo. From theContinue reading “Columbus Zoo”

Hi it’s Livi and I’m going tell you about what I will be talking about the next 24 days. I’m on this cross country trip that will last 24 days for me and my sister and it will last 28 days for my parents. Along the way we are going to go to A lotContinue reading “Day 1 #intro (Livi)”

After an early morning swim meet, we began our much anticipated journey!! It was surreal to think that after a year of planning it was actually time to go. Our first day was easy – only 3.5 hours to get us a bit closer to our first sightseeing stop. A few weeks ago, we discoveredContinue reading “Day 1 Recap”
