Thinking and Planning

D: As a long time lover of the US (both the people and the places there have been good to me over the years), I have made it a little personal mission to get Lindsey over there for a holiday. 

However, as any of you that know her will realise, it couldn't be a 'normal' tourist-y type of jaunt. It had to be special. So, I (we) waited until the idea and opportunity found a good time to collide. 

Next year then.

We're off to the West Coast (the map will be around here somewhere...) doing a loop around from San Francisco to Napa, then to the Grand Canyon via Vegas, then back to the coast and up to SF again. 

It's going to be a 2000-mile trip spread over 21 days. This blog will be an account of the trip - all the planning, all the ideas, all the rejected ideas.  

And we'd like your help. When the map is live, take a look at it, and if you know of somewhere to visit that's not too far from the planned route, let us know. We want to find the crazy, out out of the way, non-tourist places. So, any eateries, any weird museums... anything like that. 




Stick with us. It's going to be a long 'ole ride.
