Moab Trips

Friday, 8/1 - Well, after many months of planning, the day has finally arrived! I can't believe that we're actually driving across the US! It's something I've always wanted to do. Our drive will take us from Connecticut to California and back …

GRISWOLD DAY -- Started out the morning from Las Vegas. Drive was good. Kids were getting hungry so we decided to stop in St. George, Utah for Sonic Burger for breakfast. I haven't been to Sonic yet, but the kids say its great. I was looking …
