Scenes from a Roadtrip

by Marilyn on August 7, 2005

We made it to my parents house in one piece. Midway through typing this post (which took me ALL DAY) I started to rethink the wisdom of this endeavor, particularly on a dial-up connection. But I was devoted to the idea of the photoblog of our trip down, so here it is. :) Just click on any little picture to see it bigger in a new window.

On the Road Make mine a numer 1 Getting on the Interstate Gassing up at the border Entering California Signs of an old forest fire Enjoying the nice weather Defunct border check Peak at Donner Lake The boy is enjoying the trip We made it to the summit On top of the World Down the mountain Construction on the hill Denny\'s in Auburn Down into the valley Sacramento on the right track Over the American River Stuck in Traffic In n Out Burger the BEST Interior shot Here comes 680 at last Happy cows come from California Over the Benicia bridge Do you know the way to San Jose Over the hill to the bay The boy has passed out Our wonderful Driver Looking across Silicon Valley Peaking at downtown San Jose 680 to 280 to 87 Preschool of my youth Road of Cars Landmark mountain driving the expressway Just around the corner

As for me, I’m doing okay. Naturally, I’ve been better but being busy has helped me keep my mind off the more morbid thoughts I’d normally have. I’ll post more tomorrow, hopefuly but know that we’re here, we’re okay, we’re getting through. And thank you, all of you, for all your kind words, they mean so much to me.
