Road Trip 2021- Part One

 Aloha all,

I did not realize that I might have had island fever living in Hawaii…BUT… when you cannot leave the island for almost 18 months, the urge to go somewhere becomes very strong.

After I was vaccinated and all my family were vaccinated, I decided to “hit the road” by taking a road trip on the mainland to visit family and friends. Currently I am Madison Wisconsin visiting my Aunt and taking a breather from driving across the western states and the plains states. 

I thought I would share the first part of the journey.   I have forgotten how VAST and BEAUTIFUL the western states are and how FLAT the plains states can be.

Photos from the first 2,532 miles.  Enjoy! Caroline
