From Portland to Denver, so much can happen! It was a lot of nothingness speckled with lots of amazingly beautiful scenery, especially in Utah. Here are some snaps!

| attempting to get a shot of her car full of her belongings but failing! |
 |
| Tricia learns to pump gas! Yes, us Oregonians have no clue how to pump our own gas. |
 |
| The majority of Oregon, Idaho & Wyoming looks like this. A whole lot of nothing! |
 |
| as we approached Utah we started to see some beautiful mountains |
 |
| beautiful mountains in Utah! |
 |
| taking photos while driving is my thing |
 |
| Welcome to Wyoming, the longest stretch of nothing you'll ever see. Except for Texas, I've been told. |
 |
| the little Nissan Suzuki made it up this hill! Yeah! Go lil Suz! |
 |
| Home Stretch! |
 |
| Possibly my favorite treat of the trip, and probably just life in general right now. Unsalted peanut butter filled pretzels from Trader Joe's paired with exactly two M&M's in the same bite. They key is pairing these together! delish. |
 |
| and....we're here! |
 |
| approaching downtown Denver |
My favorite moment of the trip was this stretch of mountains where it appeared like we were entering a mountain crevice and there were huge snow covered mountains on each side of us. It was B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L. I loved Utah but was pretty bored in Wyoming! We drove from Portland to Layton, UT in 12 hours and stayed the night in a Comfort Inn. Then we drove for about 9 hours all the way to Denver. I'm glad I got the chance to road trip, I just wish I didn't have to leave Tricia there! I will miss that girl, but I know she's got a good life ahead of her in Denver.
