The signs before the signs

In addition to the next postings, after we drove from California to Utah, we packed our cars that night and the following morning Me, Nate, Dan and Justin stuffed our bodies beside the "few belongings' we brought to Utah. Somehow the few turned into "we had a square of space to see out the back windows."
We drove that day through Wyoming and into Nebraska. The folowing day the rest of Nebraska, Iowa and Stopped in Illinois. The next day it was Indiana, Ohio, part of West Virgina and finally into Pennsylvania. However this particular day there was a huge storm and we ended up being in it most the time. The storm was so severe that we were limited in sight and speed. We'd hoped to reach our destination that night but didn't want to continue in the storm. We slept the night in New Stanton PA, the following morning drive the other 2 hours to our house. Unloaded the cars, then drove up to Baltimore to pick up Liam and Marie.
I think that makes a total of 16 states but 21 total (we drove through a couple of them multiple times during the two drives and the wedding.
Needless to say I will not be going on any roadtrips in the near future. It's only in and out errands for me. Nates commute is only 3 miles so we're good for awhile.
