Summary of the Colorado trip 2012
2 adults, 2 children
3210 miles
67 hours, 20 minutes of actual car time
18.2 mpg
7 nosebleeds, causing 3 extra loads of laundry
4 roadside potty breaks for Zoe (2 for Jeff)
Number of times we were within 10 miles of running out of gas? At least 3.
4 bottles of 5 Hour Energy
2 Redbull
1.5 gallons of fountain coke
4 hotel stays with 4 DIY waffles made (only 2 of which were totally consumed)
0 times camping, despite carting around a full tent and camping gear
1 Redbox video rented at a random gas station
2 days. The number of days leftover cheese pizza can sit in the back of the car and have kids still eat it.
Hours before planning for next trip began? -2, as in 2 hours before we have even arrived in Houston, when Erica hears Jeff on the phone doing pre-planning.
Sheesh, and I was proud of myself for making it 5 hours in the car by myself with the kids. Sounds like fun!
