Meanwhile our friends Mike and Alice are more than 3,000 miles into their epic cross country trip, doing what retirement is supposed to be for. These photos are stolen from the blog they've created to chronicle their adventures, which is right here. This mountainscape is from New Mexico.
They're probably in California by now, and will fly off to Hawaii for a couple of weeks before figuring out a route back to Pennsylvania. Happy trails!
