End of summer

This end of summer has come to a bad end. Me and my boyfriend broke up,(I'm really glad about that lol) I do not have enough point to even try for the Olympic Games because of last year :(. and I'm going back to New Hampshire for the fall, hoping to regroup and get a good head on my shoulders. For a great season to come! So my Dad flew out and we drove across country back to New Hampshire. I was a little unsure about this drive, but it was quite fun. First we drove west to San Francisco to see the cost and visit some family. That was the first time I got to see the California cost! So beautiful! It was great to see family too. We saw all the sights and the World Cup was going on too, so that was fun to watch. Next we drove a little south to Big Sur to drive down route 101. What a sight the pacific coast. Then the drive east began, our next stop was SLC Utah. We didn't do much here but did check out Alta in the summer. It's a wicked mountain! Later we drove up to Jackson WY. The scenic way had some wicked sick views. Finally we made it to Jackson Hole, and there was some big tours going on! There were so many people. We got to check out Tetons and Yellowstone National parks. The parks weren't to busy though. They were some crazy places I need to ride there ASAP! I'm glad I finally got to go there though. Those mountains are amazing! I also got to see my friend/coach Dustin, it's great to see friends! After Yellowstone we drove east to Mount Rushmore. When we first got out there the clouds were in pretty thick and we couldn't see anything. So we decide to stay and hope it was clear the next morning. That night we went to the lighting ceremony, here they asked all veterinarians to help fold the flag and introduce themselves. I had to make my Dad go but I think he is glad he did. So luckily it was clear the next morning, and we got to take the walk around the bottom of the sculpture. I really wished we could climb to the top but they don't allow that. When we stopped by Delves Tower which you can climb I will have to get a crew and ascend the tower. That Is a crazy land mark that was used a lot during the Oregon Trail days. So after the looking at Mount Rushmore we headed east to the Badlands, this is just a crazy section of land that is all sandstone and limestone or something that made crazy mountains, spires, and flat top plains, also it was wicked dry. This was Native American land and known for bad travel, with plains all around it. It was a nice start to the rolling plains of SD. Rout 90 is by far the most interesting way to drive west or east over 70 and 80. Coming into Chicago we hit rain and traffic for miles, it was crazy and long. Finally we made it to NY were we stopped by family, which was great to see them. A short 6 hours later we made it home in NH. It was great to be home and stop driving. I cleaned out my car which was very needed, and went south to see my cousin and do our road trip to see each other! More on that later. So I have had an interesting weeks, and I'm working on we're to live this season to make the most out of the season. I am really excited for this season though!!
