The trip...

This trip is over. I've made it to places I haven't been to since I was a kid.
You don't really realize how much you miss the scenery of the Rocky Mountains until you see them again. Revisiting Fort Riley was super exciting, I'm glad I went alone because anyone else would have been bored to tears. BBQ ribs at a local place in Lyndon, KS was awesome. Pushing through Oklahoma was arduous but well worth it for the welcome I got at the rest area in Texas. Nice people there.
I'm very happy I saw Betsy for the first time in what seems forever. And there were trials in Texas, but the country is beautiful and I can understand the appeal of the wide open spaces. It really is beautiful country.

The thing is, I have finished this "trip", fully rushed on the first leg and tested on the second. It's just that I don't feel that the journey has ended.

There is more to come.
