It's Official

The date is set- We will be departing Morrisville, VT bright and early on Sunday, June 3, headed for Algonquin Provincial Park in Ontario. We'll be stopping for lunch in Montreal or Ottowa along the way and hope to make it to our campground in time for a late afternoon hike.

After spending the night at Algonquin, we drive all the way across Ontario to Sault Ste Marie, which borders with Michigan. We are staying with a random stranger who we met on www.couchsurfing.com, an international community of travelers.

Day 3 brings us to Minneapolis, MN where we will spend 1-2 nights.

More to come as this unfolds. Leave your comments and suggestions below- you don't even need to sign up!

Planning

Hello family and friends. This is the first post on our travel blog. For those of you who don't know, Jesse and I are planning a cross-country roadtrip (see tentative route map below). We are heading west on the northern route. Check back here for updates about where we are. If we keep this thing up to date, it will have cool pictures from the road that you can enjoy from the comfort of your living-rooms. So sit back and relax- we'll do the driving and you can live vicariously through our sparse blog postings.
