Well, here we are.
We’re at the end of my roadtrip – I’ve packed up my house in Cambridge, loaded up a car, and bid adieu to my friends and family. I’ve seen more friends along the way, and said both hello and goodbye to them all in succession.
We’ve ate, drank, and made merry.
We had a going away party.
I’ve added a few states to my list of places that I’ve climbed, and visited a few more national parks.
I ate my last brunch at the Foundry, and said goodbye to Ringo for the last time.
So what happened on that trip? Well.
