Trip Stats

So... we decided to take a road trip to drop our granddaughter off at her dad's in Portland. But we wanted to do a road trip we saw on Pinterest. We added some stops and dropped some as needed.

Here we go...
STATS!

• Vehicle- 2016 Ford Edge
• Mileage- 4057.5 miles from our front door and back. (includes driving into parks and attractions).
• Total Days- 11
• Total Hours of Driving- 87 hours and 23 minutes-- 

• Disclaimer this was all my wife. She drove the whole time except for maybe 2 hours.
• Fuel Used- 154.46 gallons 
• Average Fuel Consumption- 26.2 mpg
• National Parks- Eight in total 
• One Theme Park-  Six Flags Magic Mountain
• Roadside Attractions- Four 

This road trip was no minor undertaking. My wife and I thought we had planned it out to the last detail. However, my experiences as Security Forces Combat Arms instructor taught me that as soon as the first bullet is fired all plans go out the window. So... you adapt and overcome. Remember to to be flexible.

The next post will be the original itinerary.
