People along the way ....

It was such a fun couple of weeks traveling ... here are some other people that I caught up with along the way ....

My long time friend Katrina and meeting Ari!

Some old friends that we happened upon in Boston!

Grandpa, Mark, Lindsay, Kate and Barry :o)

The man of the moment ... arriving the week of Jun's graduation!

Jun and Jan

My friend Heather who I've known since I was 15! And her daughter Kaylenn.

Living it up in Indianapolis ...

The International folk's convention with Robert (a Scot who I met in SA) and Laura an old time gymnastics friend who I hadn't seen for about 15 years!

And a girls night with Jenni, Kiera, Mindy and Krisha ... oh, what fun!

So in just over 2 weeks I've covered over 2000 miles and 13 states ...

:: NEW YORK
:: NEW JERSEY
:: CONNECTICUT
:: MASSACHUSSETTS
:: DELAWARE
:: MARYLAND
:: WASHINGTON DC
:: VIRGINIA
:: WEST VIRGINIA
:: OHIO
:: INDIANA
:: ILLINOIS
:: PENNSYLVANIA

And the climactic end of my drive ended me lost in Manhattan ... I don't recommend the drive but it was quite an experience to come out of the Lincoln tunnel to the middle of Manhattan! Getting lost without a map wasn't so fun, but my drive down 34th Street did include the Empire State building, 5th Avenue, Broadway ... looking forward to returning there on foot ...
