there and back again: roadtrip chicago to vancouver

I was very glad to have my friend Kim help me drive from Chicago to Vancouver last week. Though we were on a rather tight schedule (we covered the entire trip in 3.5 days), we still managed to see quite a bit on the road.

I had to pack the car to the max:

One of the highlights was a short stop at the Spam Museum in Austin, MN:

And of course, lots of diner-food on the road:

A familiar road sign:

Thanks, Kimu, for a great trip!

    just realized the need to clarify. the ladder “you guys” refers to you & Sho returning to Vancouver!

    We’re glad to be in Vancouver too, and to be closer to friends and family (though we do miss ppl. in Chicago!)

    I found out how much that speeding ticket will cost…
