We hit the road for Thanksgiving and traveled to visit some of our closest friends in a city about 5 hours north of us. The first hour of the drive the road is horrible and after that smooth sailing...and BEAUTIFUL. I never tire of these valley views. And then when you drive up. And up. And through the mountains, And down. His splendor is here.
David was an excellent driver. We borrowed a GPS from a friend that told us where traffic cameras were, hmm...helpful.
Still in the valley
The new road that will help the horrific first hour of huge trucks, blind curves and not much space.
Look at how high those mountains are!We are already pretty high, our city starts about 3,000ft, and ended up in a city at about 6,500ft.
Tobin and Bella sat in the back, played together some, colored and did great. The pic of Bella was blurry.
Soph was a huge help sitting next to Gabrielle who had a rough four days.
She is telling you why...my teeth mommy, my teeth!
We love tunnels! And there were many.
We did 30 minutes of CC review, listened to 'My Father's Dragon' for an hour, listened to our catechism songs and Story of the World. I tried to turn SOTW off, but got protests. Then we arrived after five hours and one less-than-ten minute stop for the restroom. The kids did great, and no one got car sick.
