WiFi access has been extremely difficult to come by over the past two weeks so we haven’t been able to post many updates. We got sidetracked in Macks Inn, Idaho today when we found an RV park offering WiFi. We quickly downloaded email and hit the road again because we had 30+ miles to go and it was late afternoon.

As I browsed through ~200 emails one stood out in particular which came from Garmin (maker of all of our GPS/navigation gadgets). We were chosen as this week’s winner in their Summer Adventure contest. Welcome to any new readers following the GDMBR adventure after discovering it on the Garmin site. You can read the announcement here and see all the winners so far here. We’ll have to wait a few more weeks to see if we’re the grand prize winners.

There should be a few new posts coming in the upcoming days. My posts will pick up where the last post left off (just before Willy broke his elbow) and continue the narrative of our adventure. I’ve started adding dates for each day to avoid any confusion. Willy’s posts are usually posted closer to the time actual events occurred and tend to provide a summary for an entire state.

Also, since WiFi spots can be infrequent we try to always update the Latest Stats section of the header any time we have access. Even if there isn’t time to publish a post we’ll make sure the statistics are updated and show where we’re at.

The trip is going great since we’ve resumed. We’re putting in some big miles and seeing some beautiful places. Stay tuned for more details!
