A New Year-A New Trip

My poor blog has not gotten much love over the holidays. I’ve been too busy eating Christmas cookies and skiing in Colorado (I’m in pink).

Fortunately one of my New Year’s resolutions is to blog more! And to start this year, I’m making over this site into a travel blog. Assignment 1: cover roadtrip from Boulder, Colo. to Vancouver, B.C.

To say I’m excited is an understatement. Here are the ingredients:

Me
My friend Sarah
My red Subaru Legacy
Skis
Laaaaayers
Lonely Planet
Avery beer
Two weeks off
iPod full of audiobooks (including The Hobbit and Dave Barry’s greatest hits)

Our itinerary so far:
Boulder to Portland, via Boise
A drive on the Historic Columbia River Gorge Drive
A fun day in Portland
Ferry from Port Angeles, WA to Victoria, Vancouver Island-see whales
Explore Vancouver Island
Ferry to Vancouver
Epic fun in Vancouver-see the city, taste the nightlife, soak up Canadian culture
Ski in Whistler
Drive through B.C. to Coeur d’Alene, Idaho
Meet up with my friend Clare
Ski at Schweitzer
Drive back to Boulder through Montana and Wyoming-feast on the crazy landscapes
Back to work :(
Look for job

Stay tuned for details and photos!
