The Stats Are In

It is official. Operation Oregon 2023 is in the books. Our vehicle has belched its contents back into the house. Laundry needs to be done. An empty fridge needs to be replenished. The mail needs to be sorted and rampant zucchini needs to be tamed.

It was an amazing trip but it also feels good to stop living out of a suitcase.

Here are a few stats from the trip.

3,744 road miles

1 Days Inn

5 Best Westerns

1 random Inn, twice

1 VRBO

1 Beach Rental

65 cups of coffee, give or take

16 new birds

1 birthday/anniversary celebration

68 Cheez-Its, per person

1 mini-meltdown (sorry, Pocatello, Idaho)

21 days away from home

1 dog-eared Atlas

3,744 "Are-we-there-yets?"

1 beautiful daughter

1 great son-in-law

1 long-suffering husband who ignored all my sound effects while he calmly drove onward.
