PLANES, TRAINS, AND AUTOMOBILES: PART ONE

Ever look back and realize just how far you’ve come? I’ve done quite a bit of that lately.

Especially since R-kids and I returned from our big *Wild West Summer Trip*. Boy, did we cover a lot of ground. A lot.

As in, five plane rides…

…four airports (yep, that’s R-girl’s carry-on)…

…at least a dozen train, tram, and trolley rides…

Which, fortunately, had a sun roof because my head was practically scraping the ceiling.

Anyway, like I said, a lot of ground.

Tomorrow? A peek at just a few sights we took in along the way.

Can’t remember who took which photos but thanks, R-girl, for the use of your great camera.
