Well folks, the great spirit quest/trek has ended, and I think ended well. A few facts...

-18,151 miles

-Approximately 50-60 cities (10,000+)

-67 days on the road

-3 hotels

-10 Walmarts

-5 gas stations/truck stops

-A lot of great friends and family

-About 3,000 pictures and 450 videos

-Too much fun

We had a great time, and thank you so much to all the people who were so kind to give us a place to stay and often a bite to eat. We saw just about as much of North America as we could in two months. So please be patient, Rog is compiling the photos and video and we'll soon have a collection put together. For those interested we'll be posting more stuff somewhere soon, but for now, thanks to all and to all a good night.

I wear my sunglasses at night...

If you have not seen Carlsbad Cavern, please do. It is quite good. In the immortal words of David St. Hubbins, "these go to 11". Really, do go, extremely worth it. A few more tidbits below.

We've been busy the last week or so, basically made a tear through the south. Last friday we were in Gainsville, FL, went to Key West, decided on the way back to see the shuttle launch at Cape Canaveral, stopped and saw Skip and Debbie in Panama City, saw the Toms in Vicksburg (the Army Waterways Experiment Station is a civil engineer's playground), went to New Orleans, stopped and saw Daniel K. in Austin, visited the Alamo, had steak in Odessa (couldn't find the hotel from No Country for Old Men), and were pretty much blown away in Carlsbad.

Today is the Grand Canyon, then on to Vegas. Only one more week then back to reality. Been a great trip so far, and we're looking forward to sharing more with you all when we get get back. Few tidbits below.
