Spring Break


The above is a rough estimation (thanks to Paint) of mine and Katie's travels in the week ahead. We leave tomorrow for Connecticut, spend the weekend there (and Saturday in NYC), head to Maine on Monday, split for Saranac Lake, NY, on Wednesday, then emerge back in Athens sometime later next week (the travels are fairly flexible, so I'm not locking down an ETA just yet; we'll see how much we like Maine.)

I'm not entirely sure what it is about road trips that are so exciting (this road trip = just over 1,800 miles, 35 hours in a car, and 11 states visited), but Katie and I are both really pumped to get out of Athens, see the country, spend some time together, visit with family, and make some memories.

I'm also really excited to document the trip through writing, photography, and music. I'm going to try to journal every day of the trip, take loads of pictures, and complement it all with a cross-country-worthy soundtrack that perfectly details the journey we're about to go on.

See you on the other side.
