Horray...the time has finally come to leave SLC and hit the road. We have spent alot of time getting ready...renting the house, packing all of our stuff into the basement, ending our jobs and packing up the van for the first stage of the trip.
Over the last 2 months we have put our plans and dreams into action. John decided to take a job in Moab as the field manager for Canyonlands Field institute, this job starts in April so we decided to take 2 months off first!!! We both quit our jobs, with our last days in mid-january (very exciting for both of us). The trip starts with 7 days in Michigan, some family time that didnt happen over the holidays. Then we head to California to visit friends, ski and hopefully spend some time at the beach. After cali its down to flagstaff for 21 days rafting the Grand Canyon!!!! The grand canyon ends just in time to start John's new job in Moab. Elie still isnt sure what she is going to do in moab but it will probably include nursing...stay tunned!!!
For now, the last few items are getting packed away, mason is pacing the house anxiously wondering where all of our stuff went and the excitement builds!
