Since early 2000 we have kept track of the roads we have traveled across the United States on this map. When embarking on new road trips we intentionally have chosen roads not driven before. In Arizona there are very few roads we have not explored, in Nevada, there is one major highway traveling east-west we have yet to undertake. The dense area of the southwest is approximately the size of Continental Europe and has been easy enough to cover on short two to five-day drives. The journeys to the eastern U.S. typically require a minimum of two weeks and hence our travels to the eastern seaboard have been rather limited. This coming weekend we will be adding some new highlights in New Mexico, Colorado, and Texas as we head to Canadian, Texas, for the 4th of July.
You’re going to Texas for the Fourth of July? Isn’t that kind of redneck-ish for culturally advanced couples like yourselves?
I don’t understand why you didn’t go to Deutschland, the pinnacle of civilization except for a few centuries over the last millenia and a couple decades over the last century, to watch the enlightened drunken hooligans flog each other over what they mistakenly call "football."
After all, the Romans thought the Germanic tribes were barbarians, but the US is both the modern day Roman Empire AND Barbarian Horde, all rolled up into one neat little McMansion.
Err, umh, well, we are going to Telluride and Taos first! But then it’s on to the RODEO!!! Yippy-yahoooo
That was a lot of driving. Hey. Next time you drive cross the US, please let me know. That is one of my dream. What happen to your GPS? You don’t track that anymore?
Have fun for your July 4th trip.

The GPS travels with us and we are keeping track of waypoints identifying where photos were taken. But sometimes it is difficult just to keep up with posting images. So, the GPS data will show up at some point and hopefully I will find an easy routine for getting all of this coordinated. Talk soon.
