New car and camper

Our modes of transport have been established for the trip. Last week I took possession of a new-to-me 2012 Ford Escape in a lovely shade of blue. Yesterday I brought home a cute little pop up camper that tows very easily behind the car (and matches with its blue stripes and interior decor!). It is a light little camper with small pull outs, a great indoor/outdoor propane stove and an awning.

We're still in the brainstorming phase of the trip planning - adding ideas for stops and learning about amazing places we can visit. Clearly this is a trip that a family can make more than once! Soon there will be hard decisions to make about how long we're willing to drive in a day, where we're going to go and what places will have to stay on the To Do list.

The first weekend in June we'll be taking the new car & pop up to Northern California to visit family and see one of our fantastic nieces graduate from high school. We're going to skip the busy Memorial Day camping weekend so we can organize and stock up the camper.

Also of note: I need to figure out how to update blogger on a mobile device. This interface leaves something to be desired on my ipad and I want to post a picture of the new car!
