5th Anniversary Trip Part 1: The Road

Saturday December 17 we headed out on our two week adventure half way across the United States. Here are our pictures from our travel days to our ultimate destination Napa, CA.

Adios Texas...hello California! And the journey begins!

The trusty vehicle that got there and back again (not a Hobbit's Tale)
The exciting beautiful land of New Mexico (definitely the land of enchantment here).
We headed over to Carlsbad caverns to get out of the car for a few hours
Tour guide Drew...ready to take us through the caves
To the bat cave...stinky
...but really beautiful inside

From New Mexico we headed to Arizona, the Grand Canyon State. We stopped at Meteor Crater to get out of the car. Here it is, the big gaping hole in the ground. I wish we took a picture of a chunk of the meteor that hunk of metal was impressive (I believe it was something along the lines of 1,400 lbs. at about 2 feet tall and 3 1/2 feet long).

Arizona...snow? Who knew?

Welcome to California, the Golden State (we still have several hours to go the next day until Napa).
