There is a Lack of the Internets out West!

So, it's been forever since I posted something on here. Last you heard, we had a good time in Las Vegas and were headed onto LA.

Well, we drove into Los Angeles and went straight to the Kodak Theatre on Broadway to take a walk with the stars. Get it. Get it. After searching for many minutes, we finally found the one star that we were in search of, Cuba Gooding Jr. (or CGJ as we fondly refer to him as) across the street. Having fulfilled the journey of all good Americans, we left to grab a picture near the Hollywood Sign. After many perilous miles of driving amongst the far too small streets near the sign. Finally, we found the dog park I knew was around there and tossed the football around for a bit (later tragedy would strike because of our favored football). During the sunset, we drove out to Santa Monica Beach and Pier and visited the west coast. Sadly, we drank our last three Game Fuels and watched Prince Caspian later that night (it sucked).

We awoke and started our awesome drive up California Highway 1 along the Coastal mountains. The Big Sur was truly beautiful and worth the extended time we dealt with to drive it. Jeff fell asleep, no surprise. We also visited San Francisco...nothing interesting here, except that Wade's camera was tragically broken.

From San Francisco, we drove to Denver over two days. We spent the first night in this sketchy but ultimately free RV park and ended up at Jeff's Uncle and Aunt's awesome Denver abode the next night. Showers were taken, food was eaten, and we departed towards Sundance Wyoming.

Wade's friend Sam Yemington lives in Sundance Wyoming. Probably the most ridiculously fun part of the trip. We went to Sam's ranch after a night of momentous drinking at the Dime Horseshoe and fired a bunch of guns. Using typical on the ranch safety procedures, we wore no ear protection and my ear is seriously still ringing. Hope it goes away soon. Sadly, we didn't get to see Wade on a horse or Jeff show off his "impressive" archery skills. Another night was spent at the other bar in the town and we played a ton of pool against two drunk, but incredible pool players. They were as good as me, shocker, I know.

Today, we spent 16 hours driving to Chicago with a detour to Mount Rushmore. Great drive, no cops for over 400 miles and the 6000 mile mark. More to follow on this post shortly with photos.
