Posted on June 27, 2015March 9, 2021

Destination: Calgary, ABEnd of Day Odometer: 77,269kmTotal Distance Travelled: 8,098km Progress Map: With a long day of driving ahead of us, we had decided to try to leave by around 7:00 AM, but with taking a few “alternative routes” last night, we got to the hotel at around 11:30 PM and so wanted to get […]

Destination: Red Lodge, MTEnd of Day Odometer: 75,914km Progress Map: On my first extended road trip with my friend Joel in 2011, we took a 1984 Tercel Wagon and went to try authentic southern BBQ in Kansas City, Memphis and Texas among other places in between. When we weren’t in the south eating BBQ, we […]

Destination: Denver, COEnd of Day Odometer: 74,914km Progress Map: Heading out from Montrose, CO on Highway 50, it was actually a really nice drive, aside from all of the construction, which held us up a lot. We had checked on places to eat when we got to Canon City, and decided to try a place […]

Destination: Montrose, COEnd of Day Odometer: 74,294km Progress Map: As far as free breakfasts at hotels go, the one we had today was the best we’ve had for sure. Lots of options, including various hot options and the stuff needed to make breakfast burritos. I don’t usually expect much from a hotel for a free […]

Day 8: June 20, 2015

Destination: Richfield, UTEnd of Day Odometer: 73,737km Progress Map: When it’s over 40 degrees, your desire to be super productive seems to fly out the window a little bit I’ve found. Still, we managed to get a few things done before we left Las Vegas this morning. We checked out and grabbed the car from […]

Destination: Las Vegas, NVEnd of Day Odometer: 73,224km Progress Map: Nope. The important thing about what happened today is not so much what happened, but more what didn’thappen. We didn’t have to find parts for the car, or try to fix the car, or have to rent a car to drive all night to pick […]

Day 6: June 18, 2015

Posted on June 19, 2015March 9, 2021

Destination: Las Vegas, NVEnd of Day Odometer: 73,224km Progress Map: With a longer drive today, we had hoped to get on the road early, but unfortunately got off to a late start. One thing we did do before leaving was to make sure we could say that we gambled in Reno, so we both threw […]

Day 5: June 17, 2015

Posted on June 18, 2015March 9, 2021

Destination: Reno, NVEnd of Day Odometer: 72,413km Progress Map: Making the most of our not-too-terrible hotel in Fortuna, we grabbed some breakfast that included ham, potatoes and hard-boiled eggs. The best free breakfast at any hotel so far on this trip, I must say. Also there was pineapple and relatively terrible jelly. It wasn’t amazing, […]

Destination: Fortuna, CAEnd of Day Odometer: 71,829km Progress Map: Our experience in Portland has been one mostly dictated by attempting to recreate and improve upon our last time here in 2013. The hotel experience has been greatly improved, Podnah’s was better than I remembered it last night (and they had glass-bottle Dr Pepper) and so […]

Destination: Portland, OREnd of Day Odometer: 71,062km Progress Map: With a bit longer of a day ahead of us today, we got up about an hour earlier and decided to check out what the hotel was offering in the way of food for their advertised “hot breakfast”. It consisted of mostly the usual items, plus […]
