After approximately 1200 miles of driving and over 20 hours in the car together, we can say with confidence that we still love each other. It was patchy at moments, but we're stronger because of it, and now we live in Seattle.
To everyone that thought we were crazy, we successfully packed the Toyota Matrix with room to spare.
The first leg to Sacramento was a long, straight shot through 104 degree temperatures in Bakersfield. Thanks to a good friend in Roseville, we had a place to crash with cold beers waiting. (Thanks Anne!)
We began the second leg at 5:30am and made some scenic stops along the way, including Erin's own, Bailey Hill Road.
We knew we weren't allowed to pump our own gas in Oregon, but we never knew how awkward it is to sit in the car while someone else pumps your gas...what are you supposed to talk about? The only serious traffic we hit was in downtown Portland, so we took the opportunity to take some pictures in the car.
After becoming best friends with interstate 5, we made it safely to Seattle to enjoy an incredible sunset in the park next to our new home.
Thank you for your support and kind words in regards to the move, we miss you already. Come visit us soon!
All the best,
Adam & Erin
