New Haven, Connecticut - first night we drove until almost midnight!
Shadow of the Phaeton :)
Chris - happy, happy, happy!
Pennsylvania - lots of big rolling hills & trees
Amish cart; the owner had a tent set up selling vegetables. Her horse was tied to a tree a 100 yards away.
Ohio - farmland with a still a lot of trees
Good Year tire company in Akron, OH

Indiana - pure farm land
Illinois - farm land, farm land, farm land
Picture of the Phaton, going down the road. My dad & nephew, Bryan, are riding along. I didn't get a better picture (not sure why...)
Heading into Peoria, IL
Caterpillar headquarters in Peoria, IL
The Mighty Mississippi!
Iowa - the prettiest farm land state (I think) ; lots of small rolling hills

Iowa wind farm. We also passed a couple in Wyoming
Nebraska
They love their college football! (University of Nebraska football stadium)
Nebraska farmers irrigate - the only farming state that did (that we saw anyway - most of the farmers along Hwy 80 NE, had irrigation)
Two girls were driving this guy - all the way back to California. It got a lot of attention.
Wyoming - change of pace from the farmland states
Lots of funky rock formations all along the route
and lots of grazing cows

Gorgeous Red Rock!
Then we started heading toward Park City, Utah & the mountains
Once we passed through Park City, we hit Salt Lake City, and the beautiful mountains were gone - replaced with smaller browner versions.

Salt Lake City, UT
The Great Salt Lake (very shallow)
Already posted plenty of salt pictures, so 
Chris drove at night a lot more - they were trying to get a lot more miles in each day.
And it rained almost the entire ride home
which was good, because it washed the salt off the car.
