Hi All! Week 4,5,6,7 and however many others we've missed.. In all honesty the blog is harder to commit to than we thought. It feels like the blog is near extinction. I know that does not make sense to most of you, but with two needy children and on top of the fact that Phil and I are generally boring people, it doesn't make for good writing or interesting stories. Since we last posted on the blog, we have been from Paonia CO to Sedona AZ to Las Vegas NV to Death Valley CA and finally to Los Angeles Ca. We've been on the beach for two weeks and have loved every second of it. Phil says he was never a beach person but the beach in the winter months is wonderful. We will be here for a few more weeks awaiting the arrival of my best friend Erin (super excited for that). We've had a lot of awesome encounters and very exciting experiences that are hard to write about. Our travels will take us up the coast, to our last destination of Washington state before we make the long trek home. We have decided that this leg of the journey will end in the spring time, and we will be back home to spend time with friends and family. Really looking forward to seeing everyone as traveling can have its tough days without our friends and family. Even though the blog might be on its last leg I will try to keep it going until we get home.

Highlights of the last several weeks:
Staying in a dry lake bed outside of Vegas, hiking the sand dunes of Death Valley, high speed pursuit along highway 1 next to our campsite, & phils new obsession of car museums.

Love to all!
