Mulit-State Road Trip 2008

The kids and I decided that we would go out on a road trip while David worked on putting in our backyard. We had a great time. Here is where we went:


Erie, Colorado to Idaho Falls, Idaho - 640 miles

Idaho Falls, Idaho to Boise, Idaho - 292 miles

Boise, Idaho to Hillsboro, Oregon - 447 miles

Hillsboro, Oregon to Boise, Idaho - 447 miles

Boise, Idaho to South Jordan, Utah - 355 miles

South Jordan, Utah to Fairview, Utah - 84 miles

Fairview, Utah to Erie, Colorado - 513 miles


For a grand total of - 2778 miles

(Which is about 43 hours of driving)


I wanted to give a few thanks to people:

To Gary and Alisa - thanks for letting us crash at your house, and for the great hotel rate!

To Sarah and Randy for not only letting us crash at your house,

but for letting us crash your anniversary too!

To Mom for letting us take up your basement for a few days.

To Becki for the ultra yummy cinnamon and orange rolls...I need that recipe


I knew this would be a really long post, so I split it up by state.

  1. Holy cow, that is a LOT of driving, I don't think I could have done it. You must have had a good time with kid's music and videos to keep them occupied. You're very brave and adventurous.

  2. One word for you... BRAVE! I'm so impressed with your ambition, I definitely would never attempt such a long road trip by myself! Your kids must be pretty amazing little travelers!
