During the week of June 4, 2007 I traveled 5,198 miles. In actuality it was probably a few hundred more, but I’ll leave the count at 5,200 miles.
▪ See 8 states (Alabama, Illinois, Washington, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa)
To most, my journey seemed like an 
odd selection of destinations. Here is how my itinerary unfolded.
DAY 1 - 4: Flew to Seattle for work. In Seattle, we sponsored the Bombardier & Hub International golf tournament. We spent the rest of the week making sales calls and introducing our magazine to the Pacific Northwest.
DAY 5: Flew from Seattle to Vegas to meet up with my dad. Upon landing we got in the car and began our road trip/car delivery to Omaha, NE. On Friday we drove through Nevada, Utah, and part of Colorado (outside of Vail).
DAY 6: Continued driving through Colorado and all of Nebraska. We arrived in Omaha at 5:30 p.m. Met up with Rob (my brother), who is in Omaha for a summer internship, and delivered his car.
DAY 7: Spent the day exploring Omaha with Rob and Dad. On the way to the airport we crossed the state line into Iowa. I flew home to Birmingham that evening.
Highlights of the Trip
1. Spending time with my brother and dad.
2. Taking a ferry from Seattle to Bainbridge Island.
3. Getting a private tour of the Seattle Air and Space museum by the President of the museum, who is a retired astronaut.
4. Seeing Mt. Rainier at eye-level as I flew down to Nevada.
5. The view of Breckenridge, Colorado.
6. Experiencing the terrain of the Midwest.
