Blurb

This blog follows my journey from NYC to Seattle through the woods and over the mountains to the west coast I go!

Musings

Driving across the country is fun. Before I left someone told me, "I don't think you realize just how big this country is, Nat."

Yes, it is pretty big and certainly awe-inspiring. But driving across the country also has imparted a feeling that this country isn't so big. I can drive from one side to another. There is a visual connection of east to west coast that comes from driving, which differs from hopping on a plane where you see one place and six hours later you're magically in another place.

Despite driving solo, I saw a lot of things and genuinely enjoyed the experience. I'm definitely going back to South Dakota sometime soon. Also, I fought the temptation to get off I-90 at Leavenworth and will most surely pop over there for Oktoberfest next month :)
