The ECAT Has Landed

10:26 am
Seattle, WA



18+ hours since Vegas, and we're all back at our houses in the U-District. The odometer reads at 3432 miles for the entire journey over 10 days.

WiFi access was more difficult to find than was expected. I certainly have a few posts that need to go up, which I will post tonight. Otherwise, know the team is safe and sound.

The path took us through 6 states (we just barely nicked the corner of Arizona) and through some messy traffic around Salt Lake City, where construction crews had closed a few lanes but were not seen working on them.

Besides any neck-pillow sleeping done in the car, our rest came when we stopped in La Grande, Oregon, at the empty house of a friend of mine. The plan had been to stay with Cydney and her roommates for the night, but their Spring-Break departures and our delayed departure resulted in ECAT occupying the empty house for a one-hour power nap before tightening our belts and pressing on.

Derek, Forest and I came up with a lean, mean, radio routine. Perhaps you'll hear it in a podcast someday.

Look for invisible posts to become visible tonight!
