The Move Itself

TJ flew in the morning before we left. I had not seen him for over 2 months so it was obviously an exciting reunion. Of course, while we were packing the trailer to leave, rain bands from Hurricane Irene were coming ashore. Good times.

The first day we drove 11 hours and almost 600 miles to Lexington, KY, our first stop. Since we were there anyway, we (obviously) had to go to the KY Horse Park. Here are some of the cooler of the pictures I took there. We got to meet Funny Cide, Cigar, and Go For Gin, and TJ and I both got to hug/scratch Cigar. Pretty damn cool

After we spent the morning in KY, we rolled on to St. Louis, our 2nd stop. The original plan was to spend the night in Kansas City but that long drive was a bit much for TJ, Mags, and I. Here are some of the pics from Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri.

Day 3 was St. Louis to Selina, KS. It was boring and there really was nothing. I'll just show some pics of KS, which looked exactly the same for all 500 miles of it.

The FINAL stretch was from Selina, KS to Denver. It was about a 6 hour drive. East Colorado looks a lot like KS and you can't really se the mountains at all until you're about 20 miles out of Denver.

All in all the trip was almost 4 days, 9 states, and 1,800 miles. I will be happy if I never have to be in a vehicle for that long again. If you want to see all of the photos from the trip, here in a link to the album
