I am excited to announce that Oats and I will be driving cross country for the entire month of September :) We will start at home in Portland Connecticut and travel to Portland Oregon, stopping at many fun places along the way, visiting with friends and family and seeing the country together. We hope you'll join us to follow along on our adventures. I'll be posting here on the road trip blog as well as on Facebook and Instagram, so we would love for you to follow along as we embark on this exciting next adventure.
For all those who are wondering, this is a trip I've been dreaming about for years, and the timing is finally right to make it happen. It's a bit of a soul searching journey for me...basically my "Eat Pray Love" trip :) I'm going to be spending a lot of time alone, just Oats and I on the open road. To me, this seems like the perfect adventure for finding myself, reinventing myself, and just doing whatever feels right. For saying yes to things. And that's something I've been putting off for far too long.
If you're interested in traveling with a dog, I will be posting about all the dog-friendly places I'm staying and dog-friendly activities and adventures we're doing, so follow along and feel free to ask us questions about our experiences. A lot of extra planning goes into traveling with a pet, because we have to know which places and activities are dog-friendly in advance and plan accordingly. So I'll be sharing all that information here and am happy to answer any questions!
We will be staying with friends, family, and in some Airbnbs and hotels, and we will be visiting and hiking in many national parks. Since not all national parks are dog-friendly, we're figuring out the best alternatives for still seeing all the beautiful sites this country has to offer. Stay tuned to learn more about where we go, what we learn, and all our favorite places!
