Man, after that crazy drive through the mountains, we needed to unwind and what better place than wine country? Calling Santa Rosa home base for the next few days. It's awesome to be back in the sun!

What a whirlwind couple days! Shortly after arriving in Garberville for the night, a massive landslide took out US 101 less than 10 miles from us. Those of you that know me (Jeff) know that the big plan was to drive through one of the two remaining drive through trees. So the next morning we picked everything up and relocated about 75 miles north on the 101.
Yesterday's adventure turned what was supposed to be a nice 175 mile drive into well over 400 miles up and over the mountains to get back to I-5, down around, and back to US 101 into Sonoma.
Positive note: We drove through a tree!

We started making our way down the coast from Portland to San Diego. Just taking a quick break to run along the beach.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are back! Well we are still here, but after several months hiatus parked in Orlando, we're back on the road. Currently we are on a crazy cross country dash from Miami to Portland. The blog is currently down, working on getting it back up and updated but until then, expect regular pictures and updates here.

Last night of our nearly four month trip and we're spending it with our mom, Karen Barnes, as she winds down her trip as well. We added a ton of places I can't wait to get back to but tomorrow we land back in Orlando. Oh yeah, in true Chandler fashion, we just had a PVC coupler burst in the wall.

Another amazing 14 mile hike to the top of Mt. LeConte. Mountain streams, old growth forest, old salt mine, and a mountain top lodge. Probably the all around best hike in the Smoky's.

Another pretty great hike today. About 14 miles up to an amazing view at a mountain top fire tower in the Great Smoky Mountains. Time to plan the next one.

A few days ago, I had one final hike with my good friend, Deb Barker. It was a huge deal for her to take me back into her former home, Yellowstone, but it was so worth it. 50 miles hiked in three National Parks in just one week. An amazing experience!

Another great hike. 15 miles, didn't reach our destination, but the Grand Tetons are incredible!

After a week in Boise, we have a brand new windshield! For those of you wondering the cost of replacing a panoramic windshield, it's not cheap.

Chanda got to check off another coffee shop from her list, squeezed through Pike Place Market, and visited the Space Needle. Tourist-ing is fun!

Luck was smiling on us today. Even though the windshield can't be repaired and needs to be replaced, Chanda managed to snag the only walk-up spot at Denny Creek Campground, just east of Seattle. Relocating on a weekend probably could have been thought out a little better.

Samson was very happy to take advantage of our last day with a run on Rialto Beach before starting back east.

Just scheduled an appointment to get the windshield fixed. Rule of the road up here: Logging trucks make the rules.
