My family and I (4 of us) recently took a vacation road trip from Indiana to Utah.
12 days off work
4,236 miles
274 gallons gas.
9 states
3 national parks
13,114' highest elevation driven
54,029 steps
3,021 photos
37 movies
1 broken windshield
Countless memories....
2 day drive one-way, so we split it into two days. Sites out west included:
On to the photos....with a bit of commentary along the way.
For those wondering, stock LX except for 18" Land Cruiser wheels with 275/70R18SL General Grabber ATX tires.
There really isn't much to see or photograph through IN, IL, IA, or NE, and it rained/sprinkled most of the first day. So first pic came from second day in a rest area by Georgetown, CO along I-70 west of Denver.
My ladies fancied a coffee, so we found a fabulous local coffee shop.
Another rest area along I-70.
Somewhere in easter UT.
