SUNDANCE, WY


So we left Missoula this morning (a little later then expected thanks to a fun day of touring MT brewerys) and drove for about 11 hours before finally finding a hotel for the night. We made it as far as Sundance, WY...  Pretty close to the border of SD, which was our original goal. Its amazingly dark out here on these country roads and the temperature kept dropping so we figured we better stop to be safe, besides that we were starting to not feel our legs or butt anymore! 

 Heres a little look at where exactly we are (thanks to the sundancewyoming.com website): 

  • Driving Distances to Sundance
    59 miles east of Gillette, WY
  • 45 miles north of Newcastle, WY
  • 30 miles west of Spearfish, SD
  • 45 miles west of Sturgis, SD
  • 70 miles west of Rapid City, SD
  • 290 miles east of Billings, MT
  • 383 miles north of Denver, CO
  • 999 miles west of Chicago, IL
  • 1,104 miles east of Seattle, WA
  • 2,060 miles west of Boston, MA


    Tomorrow we are off for Omaha... we hope to make it there not too late, but I do want to see Mt. Rushmore and whatever else is in the middle of South Dakota :)

Two Days Away?!!


Well it is starting to finally hit both Jeremy and I that we are actually leaving Bellevue, VERY soon....  Stress levels are increasing but we are trying our best to stay positive and keep our optimistic attitudes we've had up until now! 



After a nice non-stressful day and a yummy potlatch send off, I had my last day of work at Overlake yesterday. Thanks to everyone who brought food and signed the card seeing me off! Also, thanks to Jeremy's clients and friends: Steven, Pam, Rob (and his wife) for dinner Saturday night - it was great finally getting to meet you all   :)  

*Since I'm thanking people I better do a little shout out to both my parents and Jeremys parents who of course have been supporting us!
