Last but certainly not the least...

Hey everybody...

Our last post left you in Utah and we've been doing a lot of traveling since then! We had a great set up at the University of Utah and spent a day off four wheeling in the High Uintas Mountains outside of Park City, Utah. It was amazing and there was over a foot of snow on the ground. We rode all day until we were exhausted and left town the next day to start our trek towards New Mexico.

On our way, we had to make a stop in Las Vegas. We spent the better part of the day driving and walking around the strip sightseeing. We also made it downtown to the Fremont Street Experience. If you've been to Las Vegas and haven't seen Fremont St or you're planning on going soon, it's a must-see! We also stopped by Hoover Dam on our way out of town and it was truly a monumental sight.

We stopped for a night in Williams, Arizona, which probably doesn't mean much to most of you. But, it just so happens to be the town where you get off the Interstate to visit the Grand Canyon. Words can't describe how utterly breathtaking the view is. We had planned on stopping by rather quickly, but ended up spending several hours there. Once again this is another must-see for anyone that hasn't done so yet!

We finally made it to Albuquerque (after several more stops along the way) and had a day off before we set up at the University of New Mexico. We had a great time at the University and enjoyed our time there. While in NM, we went out for some authentic New Mexican food...now, authentic apparently means "atomic heat" in New Mexico. My mouth was literally on fire. These people put chile peppers on everything (including cheeseburgers at McDonald's) and, yes, they are very spicy. But, once again, it was an experience that we hadn't been through before so we can scratch that one off the 'ole list.

We left New Mexico and started traveling towards St Louis where we will drop off the "dorm room of the future". We'll get back to Atlanta sometime early next week and then we have to sign off for good. Emily and I don't have definite plans for the future just yet, but we're hoping to continue our careers in this awesome industry. It will be nice to spend some time at home for a while and catch up on some R&R, but we'll be missing our lives on the road and traveling around the country.

We've enjoyed meeting everyone throughout our stops across the country and will always cherish the memories we've been privileged to make. We've had some truly wonderful experiences and are grateful to have such a fun, exciting job. Thanks for keeping up with us in our travels and we hope the blog has helped to keep you updated along the way. We'd also like to give a quick shout out to the sponsors and people that made the tour possible. We'd love the opportunity to work with them again in the future.

Signing out for the last time,

Ross & Emily

Have a good day today and a better one tomorrow!
