TaDa!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen...

We liiiiive!


That's right! Eight full days after we set out on our intrepid journey, we're still in the land of the living! Needless to say, it's been some trip! But rather than tantalize your imaginations we'll dive right into some photos to let you in on the fabulous adventures of Ben and Cabbage!


Sunday night

Welp, any good trip begins with packings... and this is ours: Can on left, Ben on right.



Meet me in St. Louie!

Since we left at 4 a.m. in the morning we don't have any pictures of the first five hours of travel which Ben manfully and single-handedly drove by himself. Yatta!

Then, since we were by this big arch (silver, and not golden kids) we magically decided to stop.

in which photographic frivolities ensued...






and we basically got to rest our brains.
















But no rest for our wheels... California already???

Nope.
Kansas.
We had landed in Kansas.














But that's ok


Kansas has many memorable... memories.


Right?






But really, our first day was a good drive, through some truly lovely land.






















And we were glad when it came to an end...























(note: this was *not* actually the end of our journey. Believe us that it was dark when we finally pulled into Colorado Springs. However as we didn't bother taking pictures of the dark and this provides a serene ending to the web log, we will leave your imaginations here...)



Regrettably, in this post I cannot proceed beyond our first day... pictorially at least. But do not fear that more photographic wonders will follow! (ok, I'll admit this first day was no roller coaster ride, and I don't know what the weird spacing is tha blogger is doing... but trust me... it gets better!!)


Siyonara!
