Vacation 2017 Recap...

We took an amazing 2 week trip out west, and it was wonderful! We met a birth relative of the twins and visited the Badlands, Mount Rushmore, Devil's Tower, Yellowstone, the Tetons, Arches National Park, Garden of the Gods, and Whit's End, among other things. We drove through the states of Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, and Nebraska before returning to good old Ohio, logging 6000 miles and 80 hours on our trusty old van. Lo and behold, we also spotted the license plates of all 50 states as we traveled! Chris's parents went along for the first week, so it was extra fun for the kids to have grandpa and grandma along. Get ready for scenic photo overload in the next few posts as I summarize our 2017 vacation!
