2000 Summer Road Trip Photos

In June of 2000, I set out on a week long drive from my former home in Ann Arbor, Michigan, to my new home near San Francisco. This was a drive I'd been wanting to do for a long time, but had previously been deterred by the idea that I would have to turn around and drive all the way back the other way when it was over. Moving to California in the process solved that problem.

Along the way, I passed some amazing scenery. Every time I thought I'd seen a beautiful mountain view, another would come along and surpass it. Unfortunately, I was in somewhat of a hurry, and did some very long days of driving. The photos I took on the trip are the result of a few photography binges, as I ended up driving right past a lot of the spectacular stuff I saw without stopping. That said, here goes:
