Saying good-bye to Blacksburg
Graham driving the Penske Truck
Graham is a pro at driving this 16' truck with a car-tow attached. On the other hand, I was a ball of nerves for the first hour or so of driving. Not to mention we both had to drive through torrential down pours and lightning.

Graham and Niki, Have a safe trip. Niki you look natural behind the wheel, you two could always become a husband and wife tractor trailer drivers, just until the babies start arriving.
Dear Niki (& Graham), You look like a "natural" behind the wheel!! (I already knew that Graham had prior experience driving a big truck.)
Thanks for sharing your trip out west with us in pictures and dialog.
My prayer for you is that this journey will be a special time of joy and discovery and a wonderfully fond memory for you both.
love and hugs and kisses,
Bill

ps. could you post a pic of the truck and tow from the outside? (and maybe even a peek into the back with all your stuff?) inquiring minds want to know!
Hey Niki & Graham; You guys are certainly making good time. Enjoy & emmbrace this new chapter in your life, as so many of us never get the opportunity to do what you are doing. I am certainly envious!! Godspeed to you, be careful, Love You Guys, Ms. Susan
Please come home!! Just kidding-Go West Young People-it is alot easier than it was in the 1800's, I would have been extremely worried back then but the blog would have helped to alleviate those fears-it might have been a smoke blog.
I'll try not to be redundant but definitely echo the feelings that this becomes one of the times of your life and a satisfying adventure and journey.
Thanks for thinking of me when you heard Johnny Cash, everyone here only thinks of me when they see porta toilets. Sorry I took the Dad name Bill we should have done Dad1 and Dadalso. Have fun and watch the road.
Oh yeah, sorry-and I love you guys very much
Hi Guys! Niki I told your Mom that I can't wait to get to work each day to open your blog to see what the adventure was for the day before. I am thouroughly enjoying it, as the destinations you & Graham have been to, I have never seen. The pictures you guys are taking are great!! Hope you will continue to share your adventure once you get to California too. Be safe and don't lose too much $$ in Las Vegas. Ms. Susan
Hi Niki and Graham, What an awesome time you must be having. You would be very brave to go down the Canyon on a donkey. One misstep.....Don, the old grump that works for me has done it several times. He said it was great fun. I'm just not that brave. It looked like it was a little cool since you have on a sweatshirt. I received your two postcards. Thanks so much. Jane's comment about you two driving tractor trailers is funny. You probably don't remember but your dad and I had friends (a couple) who did just that. Crick and Crock. I often wonder what happened to them. Have fun in Las Vegas. I can't wait for the next report. Love you, Mom.
Graham, I know I'm old so my opinion doesn't count...I like the glasses and think you should get Niki a pair, maybe even a pair every year in her stocking.
Hey! Where are you? We need you to complete the journey blog.
