Road Trip 2016

I went on a big cross country road trip that lasted over 7 weeks and visited 25 states..  My adventures have taken me to many states and I arrived safely at home on August 27th after driving over 10k miles.

The trip has been a major blessing to connect with family and friends and see some amazing scenery.
