Back from The Dragon


We're back, we were gone 15 days, drove 5674 miles, went thur 16 states, stopped 23 times for gas, which we bought 198 gallons of, at an average price of 3.13 per gallon. We averaged 28 mpg, got 1 speeding ticket, washed Yoshi 4 times, experienced a low of 16 and a high of 92 degrees and drove thru the torrential downpour in Knoxville.

We had a blast at The Dragon, got to see some old army friends, ate awesome steak in TX, took a boat ride on the Lost Sea in TN, visited the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, bought some cheese in Wisconsin, was in awe at Mount Rushmore, froze our butts off in Winter Park and finally made it home. Oh yeah, we did not have 1 single problem with Yoshi and put a total of 8300 miles on him in our first 2 months of owning him.

It was a trip of a lifetime, not only did I get to see things I've never seen before but I got to do it with Bill which made it so much better, and guess what? We are going to do it again next year. We already reserved our room for MOTD9 and we're going to drive a different route so we can see and experience new things. I can't wait, anyone else want to join us next year?
