Over 90 people attended a bbq and bon voyage party in Portland before we left at the end of June. Stay tuned for pictures and a detailed account of the party.
Welcome to Field Trip USA - An American Family Adventure
Thanks for joining the Whitneys on our seven month journey across the lower 48 states. After over 25 years working in high technology, my wife and I decided it was time to shake things up a little. So we pulled our kids out of school (Brian is a sophmore this year, Laura an eight grader), rented our house out in Portland, bought a 5th wheel trailer and a used GMC pickup, and hit the road. The kids are taking home school classes remotely over the internet, but much of their learning is provided by the people and places we visit along the road. Welcome aboard!
I love this quote, as it happens to me several times a day. I can't tell you how many great product ideas and philosophical revelations I've had on this trip, only to find out I'm a day late and a dollar short!
"All my best thoughts were stolen by the ancients." Ralph Waldo Emerson
