Home at last!

This is the final post for our epic trip of four months, dozens of states, and dozens of National Parks.  Many thanks to the faithful readers out there!

On Sunday, May 21, we arrived back in Ohio! 
And here's the familiar Columbus skyline.
 
We've been back for four days and people have asked when our next trip will be.  It seems that this trip happened at the perfect time - a number of different events all came together.  Bill retired, Matthew is in the 4th grade (and we felt comfortable with home schooling), and Bill's mom passed away just over a year ago, leaving us some "extra" money.  We still have not decided whether to keep the RV or sell it, so we will take some shorter, local trips.

This was perhaps a once in a lifetime trip.  Beth had been planning it for years and her dreams came true.  The trip gave us a chance to bond as a family and also gain new knowledge and appreciation for this great country of ours.
