rjtrout's 8 state adventure
Thanks Beken for the inspiration in posting this trip!
I have been going through my separation from my wife and finishing school among other crazy things, so I kind of felt like I was going through a quarter life crisis of sorts. At any rate, I decided to take a long road trip up the Pacific Coast to clear my mind and get away from everything around me. I started in Denver, CO and drove to Grand Junction, CO to drop off my dog at my parent's house. I then drove to Las Vegas, NV to blow off some steam for a night before my big drive up the coast. My route from there stretched to San Francisco and up to Seattle, all while camping each night on the beach. I got to hang out with my family in Seattle for a few days, then I went back down to Portland, OR and over to Boise, ID to stay with an old friend for the night. My final day was spent driving to Grand Junction to pick up my dog, then back to Denver to start preparing for the Holiday season.
The drive was about 4300 miles and it was the best time I have ever had in my Mini! The link underneath is just a few of many picture taken along the way. Enjoy!

Yah...you do need to get away from things and reset life every now and then. Lovely pictures. Maybe you should consider taking up photography
Hope things work out okay. Wish you all the best.
